|
The twelve raise their tin horns |
|
Into the wake of dawn |
|
But as the tides rise they realize |
|
The march has long gone home |
|
And the lonely melody tunes again |
|
To the consonance of the wind |
|
As we die, the sun and earth do shine, |
|
Will the stars remain if you and I |
|
Leave earth like leaves on wind? |
|
Like waves in the brine |
|
Tin horns make us sleep |
|
We never wanted to stay |
|
We never wanted to... |
|
Like a wreck of time |
|
An abandoned ship |
|
Beneath us splits the void |
|
But we never look back |
|
The twelve raise their velvet horns |
|
Into the restful hours |
|
But as life fades they realize |
|
That the march has long gone home |
|
And their melody tunes again |
|
To the consonance of the wind |
