Lyrics Johnny Flynn

Johnny Flynn

Howl

Howl for my homeland

Wherever that was

And howl for the homage

That's been gone and lost

To the passing and temporal

The eons gone by

There's nothing to praise

Not in earth, sea or sky

Or was ho?.

And in time to know

The rest will soon follow

All the rest will soon go

Stay in the light Joe

Stay with yourself

Put up a fight

Don't rest on the shelf

Growl at the pedestal

Growl at the pinch

The last of the ports

Has broken the winch

Oh the legacy is gone

And the people who knew

Have lost their minds

Oh left, there's a few

Who are choking on what

And the will to hold on

With their principles pinned

To the courts of above

Stay in the light Joe

Stay with yourself

Put up a fight

Don?t rest on the shelf

Me and the teardrop

Me and the mountain

Oh me and the cheque

And to meet my accountant

Oh me and the wolf

Who was eating my heart

And me and my friends

Who laugh in the dark

Oh and you and yours two

And you are yours three

And you and yours ever

And ever be free

Stay in the light Joe

Stay with yourself

Put up a fight

Don't rest on the shelf
