Lyrics

[male

vocals] (

Acoustic

guitar

strumming,

steady

rhythmic

claps)

You

had

the

chair

and

you

had

the

pen

You

had

five

winters,

you

had

five

rains

We

gave

you

our

trust

on

a

dusty

road

But

the

well

ran

dry

and

the

bus

never

showed

We

looked

for

the

future

in

the

maps

you

drew

But

every

horizon

was

a

shade

of

blue

Oh,

you

failed

when

you

were

in

power

Talked

like

thunder,

worked

like

a

shower

Empty

pockets,

broken

glass

Watching

the

seasons

slowly

pass

Oh,

you

failed

when

you

were

in

power

We

needed

the

truth,

we

needed

the

tower

But

the

foundation

crumbled

in

the

morning

light

And

left

us

standing

in

the

cold

of

the

night

You

sat

in

the

office

with

the

velvet

seat

While

we

were

walking

down

the

gravel

street

The

promises

hung

on

a

fraying

line

We

waited

for

harvest,

we

just

got

the

time

You

spoke

of

the

bridges

that

you

would

build

But

the

valleys

of

hunger

were

never

filled

Oh,

you

failed

when

you

were

in

power

Talked

like

thunder,

worked

like

a

shower

Empty

pockets,

broken

glass

Watching

the

seasons

slowly

pass

Oh,

you

failed

when

you

were

in

power

We

needed

the

truth,

we

needed

the

tower

But

the

foundation

crumbled

in

the

morning

light

And

left

us

standing

in

the

cold

of

the

night

It’

s

not

just

the

words

that

you

left

behind

It’

s

the

peace

of

the

spirit

you

failed

to

find

We

carry

the

lessons

of

the

years

you

spent

Wondering

where

all

the

progress

went

But

the

sun

still

rises

on

the

dusty

lane

And

we’

re

learning

to

grow

in

the

heat

and

the

rain

Oh,

you

failed

when

you

were

in

power

Talked

like

thunder,

worked

like

a

shower

Empty

pockets,

broken

glass

Watching

the

seasons

slowly

pass

Oh,

you

failed

when

you

were

in

power

We

needed

the

truth,

we

needed

the

tower

But

the

foundation

crumbled

in

the

morning

light

And

left

us

standing

in

the

cold

of

the

night (

Acoustic

guitar

fades

out)

Yeah,

we're

standing

here

Moving

on

past

the

years

Just

the

sound

of

the

claps

And

the

road

ahead (

Music

fades)
