Just In Time Ryhme

Right on time...

Another line...

Another miracle...

Without a sign...

They built a throne out of borrowed words

Sold us the sky and buried the birds

A thousand cameras, a thousand lights

One more victory nobody can find

The ink ain't dry on yesterday's lie

Here comes tomorrow in a brand-new tie

They count the applause, they measure the crowd

But never the promises buried underground

Every answer has a curtain

Every curtain hides a door

Every time they swear it's certain

They come back asking for more

JUST IN TIME RIME

Another headline dressed as a sign!

Another crown on a crooked line!

Another savior buying time!

JUST IN TIME RIME

You can dress that lie in gold

You can preach what can't be shown

But a promise ain't a thing you own!

Red hands waving, blue hands clean

Same old shadows behind the screen

One sells salvation, one sells fear

Both say tomorrow, year after year

They name the triumph before the fight

Declare the dawn in the dead of night

Put up a banner, roll out the band

Then bury the question nobody planned

Where's the bridge you said you'd build?

Where's the hunger you said you'd kill?

Where's the truth beneath the noise?

Where's the work behind the voice?

JUST IN TIME RIME

Another headline dressed as a sign!

Another crown on a crooked line!

Another savior buying time!

JUST IN TIME RIME

You can dress that lie in gold

You can preach what can't be shown

But a promise ain't a thing you own!

I don't need another hero.

I don't need another king.

I don't need your grand announcement

Of a nonexistent thing.

Don't tell me what you're going to do.

Don't tell me what you've done.

Put the evidence on the table.

Let it stand beneath the sun.
