lyrics

Family Trade


Secret soldiers in a secret war
Weapons shouldered. We've all seen this before
A silent cadence in a silent street
The calm before the storm
The muted shuffle of a million feet
All dressed in uniform

Secret meeting in a secret place
Set in motion without a saving grace
And it's now I lay me down to rest
in the places we make our beds
Hopin' this heart beating in my breast
won't give in to the daily bread


Ashes to ashes. Dust to dust.
All for the money made
Bone and body, muscle, sinew
All currency in the Family Trade

Secret soldiers in a secret war
Weapons shouldered. We've all seen this before
A silent cadence in a silent street
The calm before the storm
The muted shuffle of a million feet
All dressed in uniform

Ashes to ashes. Dust to dust.
All for the money made
Bone and body, muscle, sinew
Still currency in the Family Trade

Ashes to ashes. Dust to dust.
All for the money made
Bone and body, muscle, sinew
Still currency in the Family Trade
