Sufjan Stevens, Bryce Dessner, Nico Muhly, James McAlister - Mars lyrics

In the future, there will be no war
The loneliness outside
And the stones cry out for mercy
Will they see the Lord
The prophecy cross-eyed
As it is written, I am the god of war
I reside in every creature
Dispose of the future or put away your sword

In the future, there will only be war
Profanity outside
And after all the devastation
Will we see the Lord as it is written
I'm the producer, I'm the god of war
I reside in every creature
Dispose of the future or put away your sword

Love, peace
Forgiveness and consequence and trust
And patience, affection, determining how
Love, I hold you in as compensate
Contemplate rhapsody and energy and hope
The things to look for love, peace
Forgiveness and consequence and trust
And patience, affection, determining how
Love, I hold you in
As compensate, contemplate, rhapsody
And energy and hope, the things to look for
Love, I hold you in as fantasy, blasphemy
Fallacy and probably as fate
The things we do for love
