Great Divide |
| Here comes the great divide, I walk the slide |
| That only killers will fear |
| Here comes the skill of choice, and all the noise |
| That I will ring along |
| Here comes a sign of hope, a length of rope |
| To measure all our living |
| I was the mother’s son, I took the fun |
| And knew what I was giving |
| And suddenly I find the truth |
| And all it is is sighs and youth |
| Fire away, fire away, push the token door |
| Lie away, steal a day, make the engine roar |
| Fire away, fire away, push the token door |
| I hope I never fall behind the wall |
| Although the sound would ring |
| A skill that will take years and still know fear |
| Although I never did lie |
| I had the foreman’s kiss, I never lisped |
| I’m sure it was a downfall |
| And suddenly I find the truth |
| And all it is is sighs and youth |
| Fire away, fire away, push the token door |
| Lie away, steal a day, make the engine roar |
| Fire away, fire away, push the token door |
| Here comes the great divide |
| Here comes a sign of hope |
| Here comes the great divide |
| I walk the slide |
| I hope I never fall |
| I know my machine, I sweat and steam |
| Until the job card colors |
| I know all my dreams, I shout and scream |
| Until the day’s first break |
| And suddenly I find the truth, and suddenly I find the truth |
| And all it is is sighs and youth |
| Fire away, fire away, push the token door |
| Lie away, steal a day, make the engine roar |
| Fire away, fire away, push the token door |
| Here comes the great divide |
| And I know all my dreams |
| Here comes the great divide |
| Here comes the great divide |
