Song Information:

Make of it what you will.

It's about the rock and the hard place.

The rest is up to us.

Song Lyrics:

The temptation's simple it's a heartfelt thing
we all want something that we know how to sing
we hope to go someplace
we hope we don't have to change
Call it Hell or Heaven it don't matter it's just a name

Jesus ain't comin' now don't you grieve
he's already been here and he didn't leave
where did he go?
how far do you think he'd fly?
where do any of us go when our body ups and dies

Your body's been your home for how long, now?
you think you could just up and lay it down
without any fight
without any struggle at all
can you lay it down when your back's up against the wall

JESUS DIDN'T WAIT FOR THE HAMMER TO FALL
YOU AIN'T NEVER READY - THERE'S NO-ONE TO CALL
YOU TAKE YOUR STAND - YOU HEAR THOSE TRUMPETS CALL
AND YOU WALK OUT SINGING, YEAH YOU WALK THROUGH IT ALL


Put your head on the rail listen to the train
feel the vibration running up through your brain
look out in the distance
Heaven ain't far away
Are you ready to move or are you gonna sit and pray?

Find what you got with a pitchfork prong
the hours are short and the night is long
when you're backed up in a corner
and you're hearing that trembling gong
is it fear or fervour? or just temptation comin on strong

JESUS DIDN'T WAIT FOR THE HAMMER TO FALL
YOU AIN'T NEVER READY, THERE'S NO-ONE TO CALL
YOU TAKE YOUR STAND - YOU HEAR THOSE TRUMPETS CALL
AND YOU WALK OUT SINGING, YEAH YOU WALK THROUGH IT ALL
