Audioslave — Shape of Things to Come

[Verse 1] Well, it's late in the hour And a few more grains of sand will fall On the colorful flowers Grown upon the dust and moss Now I feel the worst is near I hold them close and count their years Pray, a ray of light appears To shine down on us here [Chorus] Break down in the shape of things to come But I'm moving on like a soldier And I say now when all is said and done It's not ours to break the shape of things to come [Verse 2] There's a crack in the clouds But only for a moment now Like an eye looking out In the blue skies finds the roads, we will go down I wonder what they hold for us I hold my family to my breast I fear the worst and hope the best Will come to see us blessed [Chorus] Break down in the shape of things to come But I'm moving on like a soldier And I say now when all is said and done It's not ours to break the shape of things to come [Bridge] Given one more try, wonder what I'd change? I won't deny, the thought is strange I've done my best and I will lay no blame myself [Chorus] Break down in the shape of things to come But I'm moving on like a soldier And I say now when all is said and done It's not ours to break the shape of things to come [Outro] The shape of things to come The shape of things to come
