AND YOU WILL KNOW US BY THE TRAIL OF DEAD - The Far Pavilions lyrics

rate me

New Horizons, unclaimed lands<br />

Await us beyond the walls of our cantonment<br />

I'll return to the Far Pavilions<br />

You can't let it get you down<br />

You were raised on the edge<br />

Of this unnamed ghost town<br />

There, a million far pavilions<br />

<br />

Gaze down from up on their heights<br />

Where their eyes, full of wonder wait to greet you<br />

As you rise, feel the world you know divided up<br />

Above and below<br />

<br />

Let the roads lead you back<br />

To those places you lived<br />

Brick fields full of cut glass<br />

Where the sidewalks strangled you<br />

As you cradled your friend as he died from a gun wound<br />

Past love and hatred lies our greatness
