lyrics

St. Michael, yeah he is alright with me
But yeah, but am I alright with him?
And tomorrow’s already gone
And the paranoia becomes my friend
And the party’s worn off
And the speakers and the guns are loudly singing

Fast forward to the pouring rain
I was thinking ‘bout my sorrow
And the memory became my friend
And tomorrow’s already gone
And the paranoia sinks into my being
And the party’s all wrong
And the streamers and confetti
Are crouching on the leaves

Remember that summer we spent on the beach?
High on salt water and drunk on the sun and bleach?
And we tracked sand into our bed, but we did not sleep
And at the end of the summer we split
You ordered a burger and Buffalo Wild Wings

St. Michael, yeah he is alright with me
But yeah, but am I alright with him?
He’s a warrior angel
Meant to keep God safe from sinners
He’ll protect God’s children
And keep the rest of us out of heaven

St. Michael, yeah he is alright with me
But yeah, but am I alright with him?
And tomorrow’s already gone
And the paranoia becomes my friend
And the party’s worn off
And the speakers and the guns are loudly singing

Fast forward to the pouring rain
Fast forward to jumping in the lake
Fast forward to the pouring rain
Wash my body clean
Wash my body clean
Wash my body clean
Wash my body clean
