Simmer

No warmth in the firelight
No kindness in the touch of the absolute
Nothing blooming in the garden
Nothing taking flight
It's a short and brutish life so

Simmer down, hold your tongue, wait your turn, die easy
Simmer down, hold your tongue, wait your turn, die easy

Another noise fills the room
Air hanging like a dead thing
The crowd heaves and breathes like some lumbering creature
Hemmed in by the mountain and hemmed in by the briny sea
Well, it's hemmed in by the mountain, all the way down

Simmer down, hold your tongue, wait your turn, die easy
Simmer down, hold your tongue, wait your turn, die easy
Simmer down, hold your tongue, wait your turn, die easy
Simmer down, simmer down, simmer down

No warmth in the firelight
No kindness in the touch of the tender
Nothing blooming in the garden
Nothing taking flight
It's a short and brutish life so

Hemmed in by the mountain and hemmed in by the briny sea
Well, it's hemmed in by the mountain, all the way out

Simmer down, hold your tongue, wait your turn, die easy
Simmer down, hold your tongue, wait your turn, die easy
Simmer down, hold your tongue, wait your turn, die easy
Simmer down, simmer down, simmer down
