[Verse 1]
See the low fires burning at the Feast of St. John
See the heroes returning, all but one
And I'll be with you brother if good fortune allows
'Cause all that was east is west of me now
[Pre-Chorus]
And, oh, don't go down when you're lit on by sorrow
And, oh, don't take that shit on
[Chorus]
And oh, oh, like birds of bad weather
Oh, oh, here they come
And, oh, oh, may they all fall together
Oh, monsters begone
Hope we won't have to wait 'round forever
[Verse 2]
See a man of good standing pushed to the ground
And his lover attending and her arms all around
And hеr anger, and her ire, and hеr blood raging full
Muster, muster to the depths of your soul
[Pre-Chorus]
And, oh, don't go drowning when they drag you down in the hollow
And, oh, don't take that shit on
[Chorus]
And, oh, oh, let them circle, let them hover
Oh, oh, here they come
And, oh, oh, they all deserve one another
Oh, monsters begone
[Post-Chorus]
I was all boogie boogie till you came along
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
And, oh, oh, like birds of bad weather
Oh, oh, here they come
And, oh, oh, may they all fall together
Oh, monsters begone
[Outro]
We should have seen it coming
See the low fires burning at the Feast of St. John
See the heroes returning, all but one
