lyrics

There's no words on my tongue
No notes to your song
Oh my dear, the drought has come

They've fenced in all your skies
No greetings, only goodbyes
There's no day after today
Only the long and winding way
There's no return, no turning back
Only the stumble down this long track

There's no words on my tongue
No notes to your song
Only closed shutters behind your eyes
There's no welcome, only goodbyes
You say, say my dear, the day is won
But there's no victory, there's no victory

So go, go, count your dead
There's no home, no place to rest your head
The battle over, the river dry
No more to say, no more tears to cry
No beginnings, no winner's thrill
To them the spoils, to us the kill
No clean hands, no place to hide
To us the hollow of the day that we all died.
