Wash away all the lines on your face that show how you`ve aged it`s a long way down your back`s been broken you can`t make the rounds the tables are turned as the litany goes... you`re a rotten old man who`ll be covered in dirt on your knees and pray to the maker that caused you to bleed
Chorus: Turn back the hand on the clock you`re a bitter old man who`s done nothing but work your hands to the bone on the assembly lines you`ve grown cold to the touch of the ones that you love ignorance is something you can`t over come but you`ve passed it on down and that`s something much worse for a bitter young man... is now taking the torch
Silent scorn - you`ve taken it out on the ones you adore Inside rage they`ve left you before but they`ll come back again they`ll pray for you with all their love but this time your indifference just can`t be excused Forced amends well it`s something you`ll die with but it goes on for them... for a bitter young man...has now taken the torch...
