Old Bridge
All paths of glory lead but to the grave
The hellhounds are out for some lucky life to save
A life-giving coal's just an ember in the end
In our town they bury the dead above the ground
But I'm waiting
Waiting for the last train
The one that doesn't have a name
Which of us has looked into his father's heart
Which of us is not always forever in the dark
In New Orleans the ghosts they all live above the ground
Which of us is not always a stranger and alone
Cuz I'm waiting
Waiting for the last train
The one that doesn't have a name
Somewhere in the city there's insanity around
That's what you get when you bury above ground
The water that flows on past magnolia mound
Is what keeps us lost and we're never to be found
The hellhounds are out for some lucky life to save
A life-giving coal's just an ember in the end
In our town they bury the dead above the ground
But I'm waiting
Waiting for the last train
The one that doesn't have a name
Which of us has looked into his father's heart
Which of us is not always forever in the dark
In New Orleans the ghosts they all live above the ground
Which of us is not always a stranger and alone
Cuz I'm waiting
Waiting for the last train
The one that doesn't have a name
Somewhere in the city there's insanity around
That's what you get when you bury above ground
The water that flows on past magnolia mound
Is what keeps us lost and we're never to be found
