A Vote For Democracy

The fire is dying

The night will be cold

Not a light in sight

I've got to go

Can you tell these eyes are awaiting the end?

That nothing's waiting around the bend?

While we stay here sitting still all the hypocrisy's leading us in

Light rain upon the fire

You've got a ride

Free beer all night and I got to drive

Beat and battered, gray and old

The many years are taking their toll

Vote for Democracy, yeah

Vote for a word

Vote for a word

The girl you knew had her own car, her own scars, her own cross

The farther out you reached into the night the less she remembered, the less you tried
