"The Night Young" lyrics

He knows no right who rolls that die for the one and only grail
Down in front he yelled to the one who forgot that she had to fail
And with a stack of lies he put aside to sign at a later date
Semper fi he said to I, and proceeded to take his place

Oh, my mind was cauterized, at least the bleeding done
With eyes the colour of knives, he rolled up on the prodigal son
Said ma ma ma ma he stole your right, he should pay for what he done
She stood up quick as straight as a candle wick, said, "When you gonna learn, son?"

I know the world you see here, it's like poison
You got pitfalls all along the way
Don't be rash and ask the right questions
Oh, think it out, oh, think it out

Was the night young? Yes sir
So young, so young
Was the night young? Yes sir
So young, so young

One more life, stories high, 11 the cat she needs
To have time to slow the air down below her belly breathes
She says to her keeper, "Don't take me higher If you please"
Little does he know, the height gives time and time gives her another reprieve

Who's to know the furl and flow of endings?
Why do they always have to feel the same?
But slowly and surely there is a mending
Soon she be laughing now, oh, she laughing now

Was the night young? Yes sir
So young, so young
Was the night young? Yes sir
So young, so young

Was the night young? Yes sir
So young, so young
Was the night young? Yes sir
So young, so young
Was the night young? Yes sir
So young, so young
Was the night young? Yes sir (Yes sir)
So young (So young)
So young
