lyrics

The Cynic's Choir

In the greatest hall, walled and wired
the cynics gather and start the fire.
Where heavy hands hold heavy heads
with massive mouths and a hollow choir.
Burning books that stories tell,
dripping hearts and wishing wells.
With heavy words the fire swells,
with guilt and fear the ashes sell. 

With my heart in my hand you’ll see what I’ll do.
I’ll build an army of youth and we’ll re-write the truth.
With our hearts in our hands we’ll surround the hall,
Fill the night with song and we’ll kick down the wall! 

And we’re not done kicking yet.
Past the painters and butchers and their blood red roses,
the preachers and believers and their see through armor,
the lovers and the lonely and their aching moans,
the cradles and the coffins and their wailing ghosts,
the bottles and the bottles and the morning mourners,
the dreams and the dust in the hidden corners,
the bullets and the bodies and the fields of flowers,
staying up all night with you on my shoulder.
And we’re not done kicking yet, 
Still Kicking!
