the waves crash upon the beach but still the mountain grows though patience is thin a sparrow dips and dives above the crowd singing all the while it's the clearest sound in the world the wind picks up there it is that old familiar thick enough to taste if things were only still buried coals finally catch with new light flame spreads there is death and destruction in the hills tonight aren't we all just the same strays old and worn out and lonely castaways what else do they have to lose lets see what we can get the world looks very different tonight the cloven rejoice under torn banners crow upon a mangled throne maintain a tangled crown as if that's all that makes a king

Don't get too comfortable
the waves crash upon the beach but still the mountain grows though patience is thin a sparrow dips and dives above the crowd singing all the while it's the clearest sound in the world the wind picks up there it is that old familiar thick enough to taste if things were only still buried coals finally catch with new light flame spreads there is death and destruction in the hills tonight aren't we all just the same strays old and worn out and lonely castaways what else do they have to lose lets see what we can get the world looks very different tonight the cloven rejoice under torn banners crow upon a mangled throne maintain a tangled crown as if that's all that makes a king
