I know that the sunset empire shudders and shakes
|
I know there's a floodgate and a raging river
|
I say the silence of the ribbons of iron and steel
|
I say hear the punch drunk huddle drive hammer and steel
|
|
Sometimes you're beaten to the call,
|
sometimes
|
Sometimes you're taken to the wall
|
But you don't give in
|
sometimes you're beaten to the call
|
sometimes
|
sometimes our taken to the wall
|
but you don't give in
|
|
I know that the cannibals wear smart suits and ties
|
I know they arm wrestle on the altar
|
I say don't leave your heart in a hard place
|
|
sometimes your beaten to the call
|
sometimes our taken to the wall
|
sometimes
|
sometimes your taken to the call
|
sometimes
|
sometimes your beaten to the call
|
but you don't give in
|
|
sometimes your beaten to the call
|
sometimes
|
sometimes your taken to the wall
|
sometimes
|
|
Sometimes you're shaken to the core
|
Sometimes the face is gonna fall
|
But you don't give in
|
don't you let it
|
