Saw the road that waits for me Swallowed by the sea Saw the man who tends to things Swollen at the knees Know now The head's in town to see Know now The back of my mind is free See my awkward sense of time I lost it to the lions See my one and only sign My symbol of defiance Old party Old tricks Stale now beyond belief Seems to me We're sinking at sea The old sea Watch the dogs come out to play The hangman's by your side Watch the hollow men of peace
Flag off souls that died Know now The souls in town to see Know now The backs of their minds are free Old hats be gone Come sweep up your storm Come pick up your big heads And be gone Never take my word for it That goes for everything Never bite the hands that feed When fear is everything Know now They're pushing it Know now They're full of sh** All along The years that have gone Haunt me The years of a silent sea
