Wolf Parade Bang Your Drum
The dying way was nearly dead By the time we reached the water's edge We saw the river beating on the river bank Oh the way that it held us in our river bed
It's cold, it's dark It's not for people with uneasy hearts But if you're with me on the other side Strike up the band, we have survived
Until they beat that drum to get you back home Until they beat it to keep you away
Don't be surprised at your regrets Don't feel surprised that the water made you wet There's a shallow down river where the water will forgive ya' So distend your luke warm bets
Follow me Oh follow me Allow me to play the voyager I'll try to keep you as dry as the hollowed out tree That he would be wrapped in another man's purse
So take a dive Oh take a dive Oh take it out on the stepping stones that make the water rise Take a dive Oh take a dive Take that hair out of your damned eyes While the waves are away at the Summer Delk Bay
Till they beat that drum to get you back home Until they beat it to keep you away
Will you burn your bridges down Singing la la la la la la la Will you burn your bridges down Singing la la la la la la la Will you bang your drum to the brazen sound Singing la la la la la la la Will you turn away How can you turn away
