Oldest Old - Fox and the Bird[00:00:00]

Sad to say I see a lot of anger here[00:00:27]

It makes compassion disappear[00:00:31]

And helps me stay so far away[00:00:35]

But hopefully we're not the type of men as we[00:00:38]

Have seen in generations past[00:00:42]

The kind that live and die so fast[00:00:46]

An ancient struggle has become the loneliest heartache[00:00:51]

An ancient cycle is now our first and last mistake[00:01:02]

For the oldest old of the newest born[00:01:12]

Couldn't ever know how the earth was formed[00:01:17]

From the saddest deaths bloody aftermath[00:01:23]

To the poorest peasant birth[00:01:26]

To the men that fought and died to conquer earth[00:01:29]

Fossilized we strain to open up our eyes[00:01:44]

And see the way things used to be[00:01:48]

We dig too far in history[00:01:52]

And there exposed our heartless faithless cousins go[00:01:55]

To wash and wash repeatedly[00:01:59]

But in their eyes ourselves we see[00:02:03]

An ancient struggle has become the loneliest heartache[00:02:08]

An ancient cycle is now our first and last mistake[00:02:19]

For the oldest old of the newest born[00:02:29]

Couldn't ever know how the earth was formed[00:02:34]

From the saddest deaths bloody aftermath[00:02:41]

To the poorest peasant birth[00:02:44]

And the way we laughed when the world collapsed[00:02:46]

And we're left with childbirth[00:02:49]

And the song we sang penned in father's name[00:02:52]

But we swore we wrote it first[00:02:54]

To the men we never knew to conquer earth[00:02:58]
