Borrowing Days Lyrics

Never mind the three days ill, the hard and cold rain driven

In broken rhyme of borrowed time, the sentiment is given

Overlook the mountain made, I'll take my share of borrowed days

Disappear and reappear again

Three days in the making, ours for the taking, chancing it down to the wire

Sleep is for waking, bones are for shaking, dance for the pain and the power

The deal unreal, imaginary ways, each farthing was forged on promises made

Hollowed and borrowed and never repaid

Take my word, take it from me, hold me like glue to it

Take my word, my guarantee, I will be true to it

Oh those headlong borrowing days

Look to the story of gluttonous glory and history's reign of revenge

Believe the believer, deceive the deceiver, what goes round will come round again

In like a lion, out like a lamb, leaving a grieving and ruinous land

With nothing to show but the cap in your hand

Take my word, take it from me, hold me like glue to it

Take my word, my guarantee, I will be true to it

Oh those headlong borrowing days

Here's to the changing times, here's to the changing minds, here's to the feast of the fools

Total disharmony, knights in dark armoury, making and breaking the rules

The deal unreal, imaginary ways, each farthing was forged on promises made

Hollowed and borrowed and never repaid

Take my word, take it from me, hold me like glue to it

Take my word, my guarantee, I will be true to it

Oh those headlong borrowing days

Take my word, take it from me, hold me like glue to it

Take my word, my guarantee, I will be true to it

Oh those headlong borrowing days
