Lyrics

Saw an old man on the corner with a sign held in his hand
Said the world we know is coming to an end
There was another right beside him screaming God is dead
And a lady used the bus bench for a bed

So I thought about my family and all the friends I have
I thought about the living and the dead
Then I thought about our soldiers
Whose precious blood was shed
Then I thought about the Words Written in Red

I drove back to my house went in and had a bite
Sat down on the couch and watched TV
They were talking 'bout the virus
The mess in Afghanistan
And another whale that washed up on the beach

So I thought about my family and all the friends I have
I thought about the living and the dead
Then I thought about our soldiers
Whose precious blood was shed
Then I thought about the Words Written in Red

God is in control no matter what they say
This world was created by his hands
Try turning down your TV shut off the talking heads
And listen to the Words Written in Red

Try turning down your TV shut off the talking heads
And listen to the Words Written in Red
