How Many Years Does It Take
Save your strength for the night
All the children raise them right
How many years does it take
For a man to die
Too many crazy voices
On which one can one rely
You saw the four angry horseman
Waiting in the stables to ride
You've touched every molecule
Watched distant worlds collide
You got 45's on your waste
You never like to talk about it
You were too much embraced
By your manly powers
And your manly strength
You got beat down in the gutters
When you thought that you were winning the race
You had high hopes
You were part of the times
You got galaxies out in the distance
Going faster than the speed of light
You got fingers to play with
Shadows on the ground
You got water in the dry lands
And the laughters coming down
How many years does it take for a man to die
Too many crazy voices
On which one can one rely
I saw the four angry horseman
Waiting in the stables to ride
I've touched every molecule
Watched distant worlds collide
You got sympathy before anger
Tears on your face
Muscle man in the back seat
Crying out for salvation's hungry grace
And all the mountains in the distance
Exploding with light
My father
My father
How many years does it take for a man to die
Too many crazy voices
On which one can one rely
I saw the four angry horseman
Waiting in the stables to ride
I've touched every molecule
Watched distant worlds collide
Save your strength
All the children raise them right
How many years does it take
For a man to die
Too many crazy voices
On which one can one rely
You saw the four angry horseman
Waiting in the stables to ride
You've touched every molecule
Watched distant worlds collide
You got 45's on your waste
You never like to talk about it
You were too much embraced
By your manly powers
And your manly strength
You got beat down in the gutters
When you thought that you were winning the race
You had high hopes
You were part of the times
You got galaxies out in the distance
Going faster than the speed of light
You got fingers to play with
Shadows on the ground
You got water in the dry lands
And the laughters coming down
How many years does it take for a man to die
Too many crazy voices
On which one can one rely
I saw the four angry horseman
Waiting in the stables to ride
I've touched every molecule
Watched distant worlds collide
You got sympathy before anger
Tears on your face
Muscle man in the back seat
Crying out for salvation's hungry grace
And all the mountains in the distance
Exploding with light
My father
My father
How many years does it take for a man to die
Too many crazy voices
On which one can one rely
I saw the four angry horseman
Waiting in the stables to ride
I've touched every molecule
Watched distant worlds collide
Save your strength
