Younger |
| Crank that siren high |
| Drain the wellspring dry |
| Map out your coordinates |
| Send out scouts by day |
| Dole out mercenary pay |
| For restless young subordinates |
| It never hurts to give thanks to the local gods |
| You never know who might be hungry |
| It never hurts to scan the windows on the upper floor |
| I saw a face there once before when I was younger |
| Set the torch aflame |
| Call the night by name |
| Stake out your dark position |
| Lie in wait |
| By the gleaming city gate |
| Try not to lose sight of the mission |
| It never hurts to give thanks to the broken bones |
| You had to use to build your ladder |
| Moment close at hand |
| Half of you will never understand |
| And it doesn’t really matter |
| Big smile on my face |
| Capsule just in case |
| Underneath my tongue there |
| Voices on the breeze |
| I heard voices once like these when I was younger |
| Blood rushing to my face |
| I know that sweet warm taste |
| And the bitter trace |
| Storm right down that hill |
| If I don’t, no one will |
| Follow me right through the chaos |
| This whole house is doomed |
| Even the bit-parts get consumed |
| Prepare a grave for Menelaus |
| It never hurts to give thanks to the navigator |
| Even when he’s spitting out random numbers |
| I knew what those figures meant |
| And what they hoped to represent |
| When I was younger |
