Frank Turner – The Gathering

Frank Turner – The Gathering Lyrics

Artist: Frank Turner
Song: The Gathering

The first time that the beat drops in the bar, it’s gonna be biblical
The second that the sing-along starts, it’ll be sensational
So sound the alarms and the sirens, the bells in the churches
Bring your parents and your kids into the street, throw open the hatches

I’ve been missing the feeling when we close up the gaps between us
It’s better than the best, benediction, more bracing than blood-lust
‘Cause we’ve been waiting and wandering, practicing and praying
Saving and slavering, gathering ourselves for the gathering

We’ve been huddled in our houses for however many days like survivors
And we’ve been dutifully paying our dues and paying heed to our advisors
Yeah, but we’re pent-up and we’re pissed off and we’re perilously close to the precipice
We’re butterflies in ballet shoes and Brothel Creepers coming out of our chrysalis

It comes down to this:
I’m missing the feeling when we close up the gaps between us
It’s better than the best, benediction, more bracing than blood-lust
‘Cause we’ve been waiting and wandering, practicing and praying

Saving and slavering, gathering ourselves for the gathering
All together now
This is our mantra: we gather together
We look out for each other, because we’ve got strength in our numbers

This is our mantra: we gather together
We look out for each other, ’cause we’ve got strength in our numbers
And I’ll be the preacher and this is the scripture:
Once more with feeling, this is a gathering

This is a gathering
Gather together
Gather together
Gather together

This is a gathering
Gather together
Gather together
Gather together

This is a gathering
