Verse 1
In the city of unseen prophets
Just over the hill
There’s an army of vagabond watchmen
At the citadel
In secret they walk among us
Hidden in plain view
But if they happen see something in us
They could reveal a thing or two
She told me I was trying to live easy
That I was living a lie
He told me I was lost in a forest
But all the trees were dying
And the yellow eyed peaceful warrior
They call Copper John
He made his offering patient armor
To help me carry on
In the city of unseen prophets
No one’s ever alone
On the wind is a whispered wisdom
Rattles in your bones, and it goes
Chorus
If you’re waiting for sunrise
and you meet at the dawn
Take your fill of the loving and
pass it on
Verse 2
He said life is a suicide mission
With a question of why
Do it quick, do it slow, do it dirty
or don’t even try
He’s determined to figure out something
Touch the point of the fall
So He asks all the masters and the lamas
Why they come back at all
He said let’s you and me make us some babies
As we wait out the end
They put too much poison in your body
But I can build you again
You’re a sea creature in stale waters
With the power in your blood
To make the angels sing about heaven
Here on earth as above
But let me tell you something honey
That we all need to know
We can sing of a brighter tomorrow
But now is all you’ve got so
Chorus
