The Ballad of the Cloth (Bonus Track)
I am a simple man.
I've seen kingdoms span.
I've seen empire's rise and fall
And turn my diamonds all into sand.
I scorned the body,
The flesh the bloody
And tossed my money on down the drain.
I thought I'd feel so much lighter than air
When I abolished my earthly chains.
But something more is calling me
And I think my eyes can see it,
I think my hands can touch it.
So asking you, Lord above
As you pile the plates up.
You gave them bread, you gave them water
Then you told them what they could and they couldn't touch.
I scorned desire
But now the fire is growing higher into the sky.
So I refuse to simply lock myself away

And let this heaven on earth pass by.
There's no glory in greed and want
But there's none in poverty either.
Like they give you salvation and damnation
And I take neither!
I once said it's not about riches or rags
And now I do remember
That these puddles of wax won't give me candles back
And won't keep you warm in December!
So we'll storm the castle,
Declare the kingdom rich.
And do away with slaves and masters
No longer do we want the sleep of eternity
To come 'round faster.
Faster! Faster! Faster!
Hey!
