The familiar taste of the bullet you bite 
 It's your kind - the flaws of your mind 
    As you fall from above to a place with no love 
 Free your dog of desire   
 The familiar face of the fear that you fight 
 Reappears - and you're left behind   
 Find your seat - now the tide and its choir are here 
 Hum along - drown your silence   
 Swing the axe for those who ran but never crawled 
 Raise your glass for those whose names were never called 
 Swing the axe for those who looked into the sun 
 Raise your glass for those who lost - whose games were never won   
 All the feelings and tears you fight to be here 
 Will be gone - will expire   
 Swing the axe for those who ran but never crawled 
 Raise your glass for those whose names were never called 
 Swing the axe for those who looked into the sun 
 Raise your glass for those who lost - whose games were never won   
 Swing the axe for those who almost hit the mark 
 Raise your glass for those who lost - whose hearts were never sparked 
 Swing the axe for those who killed your final hopes 
 Raise your glass for those who smiled - swaying from their ropes
