The twelve raise their tin horns Into the wake of dawn But as the tides rise they realize The march has long gone home And the lonely melody tunes again To the consonance of the wind As we die, the sun and earth do shine, Will the stars remain if you and I Leave earth like leaves on wind? Like waves in the brine Tin horns make us sleep We never wanted to stay We never wanted to... Like a wreck of time An abandoned ship Beneath us splits the void But we never look back The twelve raise their velvet horns Into the restful hours But as life fades they realize That the march has long gone home And their melody tunes again To the consonance of the wind
