Beau - d**h Of An Old Year lyrics

It's the depth of the winter and out of the darkness The neon tube flashes, a sliver to splinter An eye that is streaming that snow has blown into And melted, slowly melted clear away. It's the last of December, a night of no reason, For friends who look forward and friends who remember. The fire once that flared is now but an ember The snow falls – oh, the snow falls down upon. And some of us wander the valley of shadows In fervour and faith and with rifles to hand; And as yesterday's hero lies deep in the sand Of the old year, so I peer from the train... It's the d**h of an old year as I leave the station To face the arena, to stand on my own here Erupting in fire. And over the wire I'm flying – as I'm dying, like my bullets in the snow.
