No Longer To Walk On
03:51
|

Ah, the wind was so strong as it blew off the waves
Your battle was won but you still dug your grave
You laid down at rest in the dark that you'd made
No longer to walk on
And they gathered around, they lined up at your door
To touch the hem of the garment their brave hero wore
But your fight was not fair, cut you to the core
No longer to walk on
Your confident charm doesn't ring a true bell
When your heart's at the bottom of that deep wishing well
You cannot climb out of the depth that you fell
No longer to walk on
There are those unaware, those who don't know the tale
Those who believe that their hero can't fail
But I tell you my friends, it all hangs from a nail
No longer to walk on
Your confident charm doesn't ring a true bell
When your heart's at the bottom of that deep wishing well
You cannot climb out of the depth that you fell
No longer to walk on
You frame all your medals, you hang them in a fine room
You drink the dark red and you write the next tune
But the words they taste bitter, the story's in ruins
No longer to walk on
Your confident charm doesn't ring a true bell
When your heart's at the bottom of that deep wishing well
You cannot climb out of the depth that you fell
No longer to walk on
Your confident charm doesn't ring a true bell
When your heart's at the bottom of that deep wishing well
You cannot climb out of the depth that you fell
No longer to walk on
No longer to walk on
No longer to walk on

Burning Trains
03:51

Fill up the cup and pass it on
Through winter chill and summer storm
Free falling fast, no safety net
With friend and foe no sad regret
Will you see the ashes and the flames
Trees carved with symbols and names
The silos dry, the burning trains
The embers at your door?
Curtains drawn, the cattle blind
All turn away, no scene, no crime
The skin it blisters, the faults and lies
Are taken to the grave
Fill up the cup and pass it on
Through winter chill and summer storm
Free falling fast, no safety net
With friend and foe no sad regret
Will you be there when the lights go out
When the temples fall and faith in doubt?
Will you still wear the crown of thorns
As you push up to the wire?
The lanes are full of hounds and thieves
A beggar's life spent on his knees
The weavers scheme and the schemers weave
Through streets of Midas gold
Fill up the cup and pass it on
Through winter chill and summer storm
Free falling fast, no safety net
With friend and foe no sad regret
The halls of industry echo on
The loudest voice, the largest stone
But never drown a fellow soul
In the gilt sack that you've made
Fill up the cup and pass it on
Through winter chill and summer storm
Free falling fast, no safety net
With friend and foe no sad regret
Fill up the cup and pass it on
Through winter chill and summer storm
Free falling fast, no safety net
With friend and foe no sad regret

Red Georgia Clay
05:33
|

Across the Atlantic with fury and rage
The broken Sea Islands and two thousand graves
A century long past and the earth turns to plague
The deniers deny and the pastor he prays
With boots and with pickaxe
They dig one more hole
And the red Georgia clay
Still clings to their souls
And lonely the passage from Glencoe and Paisley
To the land of the proud, dispossessed Cherokee
And bitter the storms of 1893
The eagle feather it falls
No defeat, no victory
With boots and with pickaxe
They dig one more hole
And the red Georgia clay
Still clings to their souls
Each breath is stolen and the travelling dead seek
The wild river valleys, the Black Mountain peaks
And as the ground breaks and the living they mourn
The switchgrass still bends in the eye of the storm
With boots and with pickaxe
They dig one more hole
And the red Georgia clay
Still clings to their souls
