lyrics

just chip chip chip at the chinks in the links
just pick pick pick at the flecks in the paint
and here is the last assent on the days
oh here is where the last good man lays

you know no good man lives here anymore
the last one is gone gone gone

where is home announced and come
because I live in rocks and a beacon sweeps along across above
warning away the fragile frail and the fey
this home has a whole kicked in the world where no one stays

you know no good man lives here anymore
the last one is gone gone gone

here roosts atop the roof the last good one
telling the sun commonly coaxing it along
here fell a gaze a point of lost horizons
give way break as a toy a touch a song

whatever is it about these and they
explain please the ease to ease away
to and from a hand a wisp a voice or darkly leaving gaze
whatever is it to care so little on such an end and lessened day

you know no good man lives here anymore
the last one is gone gone gone
