They Speak

lyrics

Yeah, right.

So I never take him any food or anything but I always thought, mean he'll run the link fence and get up and get his feet up again! And gets 'em before they got goin' and if I, and ever since that first night we're walkin' down through there he came out and through there chargin' and barkin' and scarin' me at night and oh, it was real quiet about 11:30 at night we thought he was

They speak of poets
in love with life
and time,
despite its passing-by
Will you let it pass you by?
Will you walk these streets and fields of rye?
Or will you walk among the spider's sky?
What else could you want but to pass the time?
Instead it leaves you behind
in a wake when you're away.

So will you wake up
from sleepless dreams
and leap
despite the sheep
Will you let it write your verse?
Will you let it build your hearse?
Or will you run among the birds at night?
What else could you want but to pass the time?
Instead it calls you “mine”
in the way when you're away
they speak of poets
who know nothing of woe, it
keeps you stuck in place,
keeps your natural way away

So the song that was just played was?

Yeah that was...yeah, wait.
