The Center Will Not Hold

VERSE 1
it's not safe to be
where this all once began
the tides will turn and
it will begin again

it will begin again

CHORUS 1
the beast is lurching toward bethelehem
all around a brand new babylon
this top cant ever stop spinning
the center will not hold

VERSE 2
if you try any harder
they will break you on the shore
there is no quenching the hunger
the empty hole thats
always craving more

CHORUS 2
the beast is lurching toward bethelehem
all around a brand new babylon
this top cant ever stop spinning
the center will not hold

this top can't stop spinning
the center will not hold

the beast is lurching toward bethelehem
all around a brand new babylon
this top cant ever stop spinning
the center will not hold.
