We could never have won this;
We were fighting
blind
Now we’ve all but conquered fate
So
hate us, and see if w
e mind
Washing off the dust
Like the
first rains of the
raining season
And encircling rage and reason, we
postponed our grieving
But the
rains, they never seem to come
To have you here, to make you see
The wild hoax we pulled
; it’s all over
What care for glory? What care for thee?
By now, you know
it’s all over
All over
All over
To this house of stone we flock
Hiding like the snails be
tween the reeds and rocks
And they’ll be searching the valleys in vain
As we’ll be w
aiting for the rain
A nation reborn; A lame shepherd
One must wait and go for the
throat when hunting leopard
Now, we’re blinking back each tear
There’s no changing the
balance of fear
To have you here, to make you see
The wild hoax we pulled
; it’s all over
What care for glory? What care for thee?
By now, you know
it’s all over
All over
All over

To have you here, to make you see
The wild hoax we pulled

What care for glory? What care for thee?

All over
All over
