Beast In The Cage

Violinist set the tone, set it smooth
Aging afternoon sets the stage
Full of rage, beast in the cage, cast your bets

Warm in white, this man warns by eye
A valentine for those who see eye to eye
Rather peaceful in his stride
Young at heart, wise to my selfish pride
Stay young my friends!

Are you ready? Here they come
Are you ready? We shall overcome
Here they come, we shall overcome!

Darker days abound, he cast the stones
Would to your brother, bruise the bones
Waning in the rain, eyes set high
Arms hug my chest, need to know
Are we alive? Are we alive... How do I know

Are you ready? Here they come
Are you ready? We shall overcome
Here they come, we shall overcome!

Violinist and the priest
Like perfect harmony they feast
Destroyer of the beast!

Are you ready? Here they come
Are you ready? We shall overcome
Here they come, we shall overcome!
