Lyrics

False Start

The plan is intact

From the front to the back

All that's left now

Is waiting for you

So do what you can

For blood and for land

And it's alright

Yeah

It's alright

All that's left is execution, now

Widows pray in the shadows of the south

For the moment to pass

Faith moves from the heart to the soul

Overpowers and it loses all control

We're waiting for you

Come in, come in

It's all within in reach

And it's alright, alright, alright

Get on with it

It's falling at your feet

Beg your conscience

But it's alright, alright, alright

Head down, get on with this life

Hold fast, find the place in time

For the moment to pass

Lit fuse, running out of air

False start, but momentum doesn't care

We're waiting for you

Come in, come in

It's all within in reach

And it's alright, alright, alright

Get on with it

It's falling at your feet

Beg your conscience

But it's alright, alright, alright

The plan is intact

From the front to the back

All that's left now

Is waiting for you

So do what you can

For blood and for land

All that's left now

Is waiting for you

Come in, come in

It's all within in reach

And it's alright, alright, alright

Get on with it

It's falling at your feet

Beg your conscience

But it's alright, alright, alright

It's alright
