Flogging Molly - The Spoken Wheel lyrics

rate me

Your passin' broke the silence

On that dark October day

The sun was headin' for the west

As it did I heard you say

I set my sail for a gentle breeze

Now I leave this world as it was meant to be

And you, did you listen to anything I said?

Did you ever listen to me?

Though now it seems you'll never know

But every lad to a man must grow

Till winter comes to celebrate

Then proudly chills the bone

When at last they bury me

Into this ground you'll someday see

And you, did you listen to anything I said?

Did you ever listen to me?

Though the face we wear

Sometimes seldom speaks

From the babe that cries

To this grown man's feet

May the hand still write

And it's heart shape keep

Till our fathers, sons and daughterss agree

So I will pave this road till glory

Sets our broken spirit free

From every cross-soaked nail pours endless rain

With tears no eye should see

But they could fill our highest ocean

And the rivers in between

With every blade that flower must grow

then drown

With love our cruelest sea
