Old Man Wise

Union

She said she was an angel

She was mending broken wings

Told me she could teach me how to fly

But there's no easy answers

And ullusions they die hard

I watched her chase the dragon every night



It's raging in my head

It's burning in my bed



I'm looking within

And I'm looking without

I've been searchin'

For signs of life

The answers are there

But does anyone care

Won't you talk to the old man wise



Said she was a savior

And his mission was to heal

It brought him joy to take away their pain

And by the thousands they would swarm

Like moths around a light

Blinded by an image and a name



It's raging in my head

It's burning in my bed

The truth is inside of you

Is it alive or dead
