We Always Say

Nineteen years we knew him
Man amongst the caves
House him with the dead
Lock him up and tuck away
Still we never saw it coming
How he'd shatter every chain
If you can't manage to contain it
Leave it outside of the town
We always say
We always say

First thing in the morning
The men had raised the town
"We've never seen the dogs like this
And every stock is drowned"
So we got us armed and ready
Sure as hell what did we find
Well now he's got up out his cave
And now he's talking like a man
Who's come to life
Who's come to life

We got a dead man walking
Now he's out and good and brave
What will it cost this town
Now that everything has changed?
With so much waiting to get out
Is anybody safe?
We always say

Did you get lost or something,
Magic-man from Galilee?
It's like you just showed up
To shake our darkness by the teeth
Oh you know we had it covered
We had locks and gates and keys
We don't need your kind to help us
Running business in this town
No we don't need
Oh we don't need

We got a dead man walking
Now he's out and good and brave
What will it cost this town
Now that everything has changed?
With so much waiting to get out
Is anybody safe?
We always say

With so much waiting to get out
Is anybody safe?
We always say
