about

Dave's song about mankind's struggle for eternal youth and fighting the inevitable ravages of time.

lyrics

The Wolf, The Angel Philanthropist And Saint
The Architect, The Nightingale All To Heaven Went
One By One They Shuffled Off One By One Were Sent
Each In Time They Took Their Turn Each In Time They Left

The Bold, The Beautiful The Master And The Slave
Politician, President None Of Which Were Saved
All In Time They Took A Bow All In Time Went Away
Perfectly Preserved And Yet Perfectly Decayed

And Still, We Strive To Control The Burn
Still, We Try.... To Avoid Our Turn
We Spend Our Lives.... Maintaining Our Concern For
Controlling The Burn

Your God, The Mirror Yourself And Within
The Only Ones That You Can Trust The Only Ones Let In
Time And Time, It’s Proven Right Time And Time Again
Candidates For The Fight Candidates For Killing

We Live, To Burn We Choose When To Die
Invincible Invisible The Same Old Lie
Round And Round, We Go Again
Round And Round, We Cry
Not Knowing When It Ends Not Knowing Why…

And Still, We Strive To Control The Burn
Still, We Try.... To Avoid Our Turn
We Spend Our Lives.... Maintaining Our Concern For
Controlling The Burn
