lyrics
i see the sparrows are gathering and singing all in unison
i see the burglars are sharing their spoils and growing into wealthy men
i see the product of this timeline running circles around old wisdom
and in the mirror although i try to fight it i see who i'll be and who i've always been
i see tired traditions and dead letters pulling the wool over eyes
of children led by leashes through labyrinths so far from anything divine
i see the council men counting their coin and lining tired workers in rows
and then calling out the sick and tell them they must continue work
if they expect a funeral.
i see the burglars are sharing their spoils and growing into wealthy men

of children led by leashes through labyrinths so far from anything divine
i see the council men counting their coin and lining tired workers in rows
and then calling out the sick and tell them they must continue work
if they expect a funeral.
