When the Shouting Is Over

Turn like a wheel
Into the road and to the next town
Take a drink but buy your meal
Out at the point we wait for tidelines
Build a wall and make it high
Don’t deny your hungry brothers
If you dig a well, then make it deep
If it spoils, then dig another
Remember our faces every day that you roam
When the race is run
And the shouting is all over
Come on home
Plough through the fields
Push through the crowds, big and steel
Walk through walls, fill empty halls
the magic needs to
Fly and don’t come down
Unless there’s no one there to stop you
Make thunder when you run
Know there’s no one who can top you
If you’re tired, if you’re down, we’ll never drop you
When the race is run
And the shouting is all over
Come on home
When the race is run
And the shouting is all over
Come on home
