Fire And Wings

(album: FIVE - 2019)

Rolling out the grand parade
Send up all the fire and wings
The butcher, here to gut the day
And spill out the sudden King

All the bravest boys
Waiting for the world to end

You never knew you were that way
The rifle came before your name
And mothers share a slice of hope
Smoking under heavy rain

All the bravest boys
Waiting for the world to end

And all the bravest boys
Are waiting for the world to end
(Over it before it began)
And all their favorite toys
Are buried there beside their friends
Where the world will end
(Over it before it began)

Huddled on a shadowed hill
The town is a fallen steed
Chocolate milk and wounded bones
The rumors in the trembling leaves

And all the bravest boys
Are waiting for the world to end
For the world to end
(Over it before it began)
And all their favorite toys
Are buried there beside their friends
Where the world will end
(Over it before it began)

All the bravest boys
Waiting for the world to end
