lyrics

He faces his fear. We think he's close to death.
He searches for God. We think he's wasting his breath.
He's falling apart like some monument.
Built to never forget, but they always forget.

Faces fear, and it becomes his loving god.

He's starting fresh but we don't think he's clean.
Watch him after midnight and you'll see what we mean.
He's working on his right arm like it's some sort of machine.
Between the drinks and the jerks he's keeping it lean.

I am what time and circumstance have made me.
But a wisp of fog passing through like wind in the trees.
I'll beckon once, would you like to come and dance with me.
I'll take those by force that ever dare to tempt me.
