On a tidal wave I standPerhaps of me you've heard With a storm cloud in my hand I've come dispensing word Of your company I've tired Your welcome here is worn It's you who lit this cradle pyre It is you who woke this storm So I do this with regret But you've left me with little choice When your mouth is full of threats When you speak you use my voice Oh child where will you run When the world's on fire Old man see what you've done As the flames grow higher
