Jolly Roger Songtext
von Brian Beckford

The Jolly Roger rises again
My weapons, papers and pens.
My friends, my God, my Fight inside.
Welcome to the new universe.
Observe the fabric of us.
From dust to dust, we′ll be despised.

Wake me before you go, where I'll never follow.

Just gotta walk away and let the music play out
(Now fill me up with wonder)


I′m dancing on the head of a pin,
Recalling sorrows again.
And then I find another one.
Camaraderie is under my breath,
Composing what to expect.
I crack my neck and wade in time...

Is this life from now on?
Must we fight from now on?

Is this affliction or temptation, the way it's making me out to be?
I gotta wonder about the thunder,
About the darkening clouds above me.
I reckon now spontaneous combustions the only remedy left for me.
I raise my white flag up to the sky,
And place the yellow tape at the scene of the crime.
Proceed to lift my fist, and whispering I cry out,
"You'll never take me alive"
