Lyrics It Begins Tonight - Tom Morello: The Nightwatchman

It Begins Tonight

I’m faceless, nameless, right or wrong.
I’m fearless, hopeless.
Sing my song.
Out go the lights,
It begins tonight.
On stage with borrowed angels soared,
In a crossword puzzle of stolen chords,
I’m alive but those I love are gone,
Let’s move tonight and take the throne.
Out go the lights,
It begins tonight.
Oh lord it begins tonight,
Oh lord, oh lord, it begins tonight,
Oh lord, oh lord, it begins tonight,
Cell door clicks open I come alive.
Oh lord,
It begins tonight.
Out with the rules
Looked just where you told me,
I never found a thing.
Yeah I see all the jewels,
Gold and diamonds glistening,
I see all moving,
But man I aint listening.
Sun and moon and stone and mud,
A bottle of whiskey and a pint of blood,
I’ll burn my way to the sea,
'til all the dead are all out free.
Out go the lights,
It begins tonight.
Oh lord, it begins tonight,
Oh lord, oh lord, it begins tonight,
Oh lord, oh lord, it begins tonight,
Cell door clicks open i come alive.
Oh lord,
It begins tonight.
