lyrics

The words of the poets lie scattered and broken
And all of our idols have crumbled and fallen
Where will you run to?
While cities are burning?
While leaders are hiding?
Will you try to find something to follow?

The sound of the drumbeats, it echoes like thunder
Pride and ambition will suck us all under
Have we learned nothing?
Since Rome's walls were crumbling?
As Nero is fiddling
Have you got some truth we can borrow?

Laugh as we dance in our mad melancholy
Scorn our own wisdom, embrace all our folly
When the Dow crashes
We'll line up by classes
In sackcloth and ashes
And bleed for a better tomorrow.
