Of Monsters And Heroes And Men |
| Stray cats |
| With fish heads |
| Feeding their litters |
| Feral kids fight |
| Over rats tailed |
| From gutters |
| Bookie mouth brokers |
| Rotten fruit sellers |
| Pickpockets ghost |
| Through the crowd |
| He climbs onto boxes |
| By market stall traders |
| Toothless and grey haired |
| Thousand yard stare |
| He had a vision |
| Which broke the receiver |
| Receiving transmission |
| Surface to air |
| Either way |
| I’m in awe of you |
| Either way |
| We’ll survive |
| We’ll survive |
| Conjuring devils |
| Angels and demons |
| Only the children |
| See shape to his tone |
| Laughing and crying |
| His song fell upon us We buried his treasure |
| Along with the bones |
| Arms held aloft |
| A Y to the sky |
| Innocent witness |
| He testified |
| Drained of his purpose |
| He falls off the quayside |
| Absorbed by the ocean |
| Rolled by the tide |
| Either way |
| I’m in awe of you |
| Either way |
| We’ll survive |
| Either way |
| I’m in awe of you |
| Either way |
| We’ll survive |
| We’ll survive |
| Under the power lines |
| Which crackle and sparkle |
| Under the freeway |
| Now mostly rubble |
| The hungry still gather |
| To fill up with stories |
| Of monsters |
| And heroes and men |
| Under the stars |
| Which prick us And call us Connect us to hope |
| That perfection’s |
| Within is Here on the ground |
| We’re reckless |
| And hopeless |
| Damned by The slip of a pen |
| Rambling poets |
| Manic with vision |
| We are the drivers yet |
| We feel driven |
| Moths in the moonlight |
| Fooled by a flashlight |
| Caught in a jam jar |
| Gasping for air |
| Rambling poets |
| Manic with vision |
| We are the drivers yet |
| We feel driven |
| Moths in the moonlight |
| Fooled by a flashlight |
| Caught in a jam jar |
| Gasping for air |
| Either way |
| I’m in awe of you |
| Either way |
| We’ll survive |
| We’ll survive |
