One swallow never made a spring
|
||
|
|
You can buy a crown - it doesn't make you king
|
||
|
|
Beware the trinkets that we bring
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
When the visionary dreams set hard and grey as flesh made into stone
|
||
|
|
You tore the statues to the ground crying - let my people go
|
||
|
|
And now they're gone, all is gone
|
||
|
|
But these changing winds can turn cold and hostile
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The freedom passion and the two faced call
|
||
|
|
They dance together upon the wall
|
||
|
|
With nothing left to break the fall
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Now twenty-five miles north in the great dark woods
|
||
|
|
The college buildings stand
|
||
|
|
And the ghosts of hope walk silent halls at the death of the Promised Land
|
||
|
|
All is gone, all is gone
|
||
|
|
But these changing winds can turn cold and hostile
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
And in the shadows of the crowded square, a thousand paper deals go down
|
||
|
|
And hungry sharks from everywhere smell the blood and head for town
|
||
|
|
Innocence starts to peel away - How money changes everything
|
||
|
|
The past it eats the future up and this blind desire eats everything
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Now the rats they leave one stricken ship for another sailing past
|
||
|
|
Your world was going nowhere slow while ours goes nowhere fast
|
||
|
|
And now it's gone, all is gone
|
||
|
|
But these changing winds can blow cold and hostile
|
||
|
