[Verse 1]
Sleeping with his arms ‘round the hips of fate
And his tears scattered ‘round the world
Angel, go give him his dreams
And my cold, black visions

[Verse 2]
Show him his babies in a helpless state
Of never knowing fully his voice
Never knowing what it is to be
His children
Dream brother
With his eyes to the burning sun

[Chorus]
Don't be like the one who made me so old
Don't be like the one who left behind his name
'Cause they're waiting for you like I waited for mine
And nobody ever came

[Chorus]
Don't be like the one who made me so old
Don't be like the one who left behind his name
'Cause they're waiting for you like I waited for mine
And nobody ever came
[Chorus]
Don't be like the one who made me so old
Don't be like the one who left behind his name
'Cause they're waiting for you like I waited for mine
And nobody ever came
Nobody ever came
