More frightful than the storm
If I didn’t fear misunderstanding
You could come in and get warm
“And if this world had only one heart”
Sings the king of the bandits
“I would tear it out myself”
He quit the team for good reason
He was tired of keeping score
Of being whipped by some coach
who cannot play
He won’t be anymore
“And if this world had only one heart”
Sings the king of the bandits
“I would tear it out myself”
Have you ever tried to follow a dream?
By day the way is not so clear
As it is by night when the path
To the treasure in the forest lies near
“And if this world had only one heart”
Sings the king of the bandits
“I would tear it out myself”
“You must judge us by what we are,” the minister says
“And not by what we do
Beliefs are not the same things as reasons
And we don’t have to explain either to you”
“And if this world had only one heart”
Sings the king of the bandits
“I would tear it out myself”
“I’m with the special-access program,” the ghost says
“Don’t you remember me?
Doesn’t matter if you do or not
I’m still going to set you free”
“And if this world had only one heart”
Sings the king of the bandits
"I would tear it out myself"
Truth comes for some in dreams
For others in the shower
Chaos rules the world
Such are your earthly powers
“And if this world had only one heart”
Sings the king of the bandits
“I would tear it out myself”
Imagine waiting your whole life for justice
And finding heaven instead
Learning life is the only judgment
Desired by the dead
“And if this world had only one heart”
Sings the king of the bandits
“I would tear it out myself”
Here’s to all the gunboys
In all their days in the sun
May the god they serve greet them at their death
Each and every one
“And if this world had only one heart”
Sings the king of the bandits
“I would tear it out myself”
"I would tear it out myself"
“Where do you get all this change?”
The beggar replies, “From
all the gracious people
For the whole world is a church
For the truly needful”
“And if this world had only one heart”
Sings the king of the bandits
“I would tear it out myself”
The beggar replies, “From
all the gracious people
For the whole world is a church
For the truly needful”
“And if this world had only one heart”
Sings the king of the bandits
“I would tear it out myself”
Truth comes for some in dreams
For others in the shower
Chaos rules the world
Such are your earthly powers
“And if this world had only one heart”
Sings the king of the bandits
“I would tear it out myself”
Imagine waiting your whole life for justice
And finding heaven instead
Learning life is the only judgment
Desired by the dead
“And if this world had only one heart”
Sings the king of the bandits
“I would tear it out myself”
Here’s to all the gunboys
In all their days in the sun
May the god they serve greet them at their death
Each and every one
“And if this world had only one heart”
Sings the king of the bandits
“I would tear it out myself”
