Dying Breed Lyrics

If nothing gold is going to stay

Then why would something rotten to the bone?

And when the pendulum does sway

Who's going to row your seasick sailors home?

Dinners done, but you still scrounge for morsels

Regaling us of your feats

Choking while you gorge and chortle

And should seeds sift through

To start anew

You'll be turning in your tomb

It's your death rattle

Face it, there's a whole new animal

And you're just a dying breed

So give to the pull

A changing landscape is your nightmare

Rips you from slumber in the coldest sweat

Can't face a world you can't remember

If it lays yonder, it's a lethal threat

Who passed controls to such misguided hands?

Better brace for impact

The beach should read "here may you see the tyrant"

But if your whole plan's

Just bold grandstands

Guess I'll write "help" in the sand

It's your death rattle

Face it, there's a whole new animal

And you're just a dying breed

So give to the pull

Changing winds intensifying

Blow you off course and leave you behind

The rope you cling to is straining and it

Won't be long until it rips

Afloat in a sea that's draining

When the ebb and flow

Gets tough to row

Cut loose all you've kept in tow

It's your death rattle

Face it, there's a whole new animal

And you're just a dying breed

So give to the pull

It's your death rattle

Face it, there's a whole new animal

And you're just a dying breed

So give to the
