LYRIC
The promises made, hidden from doubt
The things we were told before we were old
Our weakness foretold our losses yet to come [Verse 2] They herded us up to wait in a line
None of us noted the passage of time
A book with a page on the cruelty of age
And the wars they would wage in the name of our unhappy sons [Verse 3] Our friends have not abandoned us yet
Sisters and Brothers! Decisions regret
Of passion bereft when nothing is left
But the emptiness that became the only thing we knew [Verse 4] Last night I woke from a shout
The glow of the street light shone from without
The dust of our dreams suspended in beams
In the hollow place that once belonged to you
