However Long

Intro: See the man with the military mind Tryin' to make us all afraid all the time Tryin' to make us all stay inside and lock our doors and windows See the man's got too much to count Tryin' to recollect the Sermon on the Mount Blessed are the poor when they're all swinging from the gallows Pre-Chorus But I ain't afraid no more, I ain't afraid no more I ain't afraid no more, no I ain't afraid 'Cause however long the night, the dawn will break again We'll be around when you have lost your oldest friends There's nothin' you can say or do to us to drown out this amen 'Cause however long the night, the dawn will break again See the poet with nothin' left to say Starin' down at blank pages all day Let the alcohol take you away and sleep the way fools do See the beast with the gasoline hand Breathin' fire, drawin' lines in the sand Pray we find ourselves a better plan and die the way we used to Pre-Chorus But I ain't afraid no more, I ain't afraid no more I ain't afraid no more, no I ain't afraid However long the night, the dawn will break again We'll be around when they have found your next of kin There's nothin' you can say or do to us to drown out this amen 'Cause however long the night, the dawn will break again Bridge: See the woman with the roses in her hair Bringin' lovin' when it's too much to bear Tell me I can make a difference this time All I gotta do is make it all rhyme Solo: However long the night, the dawn will break again We'll be around when they have found your next of kin There's nothin' you can say or do to us to drown out this amen 'Cause however long the night, the dawn will break again Will break again OUTRO:
