Where Shall We Go Now

Where shall we go now

That we have drunk down all the sightings

In the cold clear night

And bathed in the glare

Of the pure moon light

Who shall we sing too

Now the wolves have all retired

Who shall we seek out

To once again conspire

To fight for truth and beauty and

Begin it all again

To dance in all our glory

And invent new ways to sin


Where shall we run to now

In order to regain

Our hopes and trust and confidence

So much hard earned disdain

And who shall we rely on

Now the weapons are all blunt

Who shall offer solace

Now they've called off the hunt

We've stitched a cloak of sorrow

And sewn our wounds up tight

As our voices crack and break

Our vision losing sight

So let's empty out the wine skins

And down the whisky fast

And pray to all the gods of night

That dawn will come at last
