Behold the man Serpents tongue A man knows all that's said and done Listing ship, beneath the storm The bulls cracked whip The pain to come Behold the shame Heavy worn Numb the hurt Cast your stones Hide your heart man Carry on In the shadow a man belongs We're all doing what we oughta' We all got our mouth to feed Ain't no sense to make of it all son Fight your corner Learn to bleed Well I don't want to die alone No love to lay me down Can't we build a pyre for all this Fallen idols, kings and clowns We all see here what we want to Ever takin all we need No one's diggin' gold in the doldrums Where the sparks hide scared unseen The veil of trust stole our attention From the truth cloaked in disgrace A simple heart broke under pressure I miss his silent elegance Behold the man the hell to pay The teeth that tore forbidden taste Stand for nothin' Fall for somethin' Desires and dreams all yours to waste
