Living Legend

Was it bitter then
With our backs against the wall?
Were we better men
Than we’d ever been before?
Say, if she came again today
Would you still answer to the call?
Tell the truth my friend
Don’t it matter anymore?
We were simple men
By her side when she was born
Talkin' about the dream
It was simple then
Like the freedom when you fall
And we were smaller then you see
But soon we gathered like a storm
They don’t understand
What that thunder meant at all
Was he crucified
Was he done in by the law?
Are you satisfied
That he’ll never ride again?
Some people say he got away
They say he never died at all
If that story’s true
Does it bother you my friend?
Was it bitter then
With our backs against the wall?
Spoken
Say, two thousand years ago
Were we better men
Than we’d ever been before?
Spoken
Or two hundred years ago
Say, if she came again today
Would you still answer to the call?
Or tomorrow
Tell the truth my friend
Don’t it matter anymore?
