A Beacon In Beige

After this high and low
A little late to let it go
Crooked road to the end
'Round the way and back again

Take your book, you forget
Liars, thieves and hypocrites
Take your place in the square
Ceremonious start in there

Lost all the others, do you love all your brothers
Do you or did you miss the light?
The tide is rising, a wind is rising
Don't want to wait for you to die

Dot the I's, cross the T's
Models of efficiency
Bittersweet victory
Hope you live to see defeat

Lost all the others that you love all your brothers
Do you or did you miss the light?
The words are binding, the sun is rising
You've come to fight

Yes, it takes generations to replace apparitions
That you recognize the right
The tide is rising, the wind is rising
Don't want to wait for you to die
Don't want to wait for you to die
