Flaming Red |
Failure’s child is weak and mild |
Wide-eyed and sad and strange |
A moment is the most |
She’ll hang her day upon |
Others plan a life |
Without the faintest hope of change |
And belay all her knowledge |
Of where hope has gone |
In these ugly times |
An ugly mind will have its say |
And your betters would not |
Have it any other way |
Oh my eyes |
For the sins I may not shed |
Burn like coals inside my head |
Smoldering black and flaming red |
Oh my eyes |
For the sins I may not shed |
Burn like coals inside my head |
Smoldering black and flaming red |
Reconciled and pacified |
By bread and circus clowns |
Who keep you all in stitches |
As they keep you down |
Dust yourself down |
Tell me what on earth |
The fuss was for |
'Cause what you’ve seen is nothing |
To what’s still in store |
In these ugly times |
An ugly mind will have its say |
And your betters would not |
Have it any other way |
Oh my eyes |
For the sins I may not shed |
Burn like coals inside my head |
Smoldering black and flaming red |
Oh my eyes |
For the sins I may not shed |
Burn like coals Inside my head |
Smoldering black And flaming red |
Oh my eyes |
For the sins I may not shed |
Burn like coals inside my head |
Smoldering black and flaming red |
