Lyrics

[Verse 1]
How many more days of this stillness?
Before the fire will blow out?
A restless wind did use to stir it
But it's wind-still, and the silence is loud
How many more days of disorder?
Of drunkenly raving around?
I've been sleeping down here among minions
Their carelessness scattered about
[Verse 2]
Trapped in a body
That doesn't act on thought
I have a sense of utopia
Of what I'm truly ought to do
Born onto the tide
Is it really any wonder that I'm here like this?
An alliance in body and mind
Such a perfect lover I could become
How many?
[Verse 3]
How many hollow declarations?
Will follow, lulled into a trance?
I have been sitting in congress with nations
Rubbing my perspiring hands
How many attempts will it take to
Bloom in splendorous foul?
Now I'm so tender and wingless
Gangling out on the prowl
[Verse 4]
Trapped in a body
That doesn't act on thought
I have a sense of utopia
Of what I'm truly ought to do
Born onto the tide
Is it really any wonder that I'm here like this?
An alliance in body and mind
Such a perfect lover I could become
[Verse 5]
How many?
How many?
How many?
How many?
