lyrics

"Go out and prosper," he said to his son, "Live in the world and meet someone."
"Be careful what you ask for," he said to his dad, "It might just come true and I'll never come back."
It's the fear inside us all
That makes us who we are

Rain so hard I can't calm down
Washing all the roads into the Puget Sound
Is man made of dust or is he made of light?
The way we stand together 'neath the darkest of night
It's the fear inside us all
That makes us who we are

Man came back to greet his dad
To see if being like him was really that bad
He'd grown old and weary but had learned to smile
Talking to himself all the while
"When the time comes to give up the ghost
Don't you know I'll be singing loud,
Don't you know I'll be singing loud!"

Man moved away and started a life
With faith in the fact that it's worth the price
A son of his own was soon coming of age
The man would soon be forced through the rites of a sage
When the time comes to give up the ghost
Don't you know I'll be singing loud
Don't you know I'll be singing loud!

Boys will be boys at least that's what they say
Shaping the mold from the potters' clay
Boy turned to man with a sigh and a shrug
Turning away he said:

"We're not here to sing an anthem and we're not here to sing love songs
We're not here to sing an anthem and we're not here to sing love songs."

Because it's the fear inside us all, that makes us who we are

"Go out and prosper," he said to his son, "Live in the world and meet someone."
"Be careful what you ask for," he said to his dad, "It might just come true and I'll never come back."
