The First Ones
They were the last ones
To stand by the fire
Watching it fan then
Watching it die
They never dreamed
Of the trouble they'd cause
When the fire burned out
And the west had lost
How do we take it back
To where it began
As simpler men
How do we make our way
From castles of steal
With wheels made of clay
They held their flag up
All tattered and worn
Praying for mercy
To a prince crowned in thorns
They never dreamed
That it'd end this way
While waiting for rapture
In a twist of fate
How do we take it back
To where it began
As simpler men
How do we make our way
From castles of steal
With wheels made of clay
Woo hoo
Woo hoo
Woo hoo
Woo hoo
Woo hoo
Woo hoo
We were the first ones
To stand by the fire
Fanning the flames
We watched it grow higher
To stand by the fire
Watching it fan then
Watching it die
They never dreamed
Of the trouble they'd cause
When the fire burned out
And the west had lost
How do we take it back
To where it began
As simpler men
How do we make our way
From castles of steal
With wheels made of clay
They held their flag up
All tattered and worn
Praying for mercy
To a prince crowned in thorns
They never dreamed
That it'd end this way
While waiting for rapture
In a twist of fate
How do we take it back
To where it began
As simpler men
How do we make our way
From castles of steal
With wheels made of clay
Woo hoo
Woo hoo
Woo hoo
Woo hoo
Woo hoo
Woo hoo
We were the first ones
To stand by the fire
Fanning the flames
We watched it grow higher
