Sleep now in the dust
Let me carry us over the hills
Hear the night, with everyone singing
Out, out loud
Whatever you face
I’ll be here with you son
Right there upon the top of your shoulder
Can you sharpen your tongue, kid?
I know you will find your voice in the thunder, son
If you learn from the ship wrecks, in time
You’ll be the hand that fights
Sleep well in the dust
It’s time to carry the empire home
Please resist, the silver tongues swinging
Out, out now
