Bang Your Drum Lyrics

Artist: Wolf Parade
Album: At Mount Zoomer

The dying way was nearly dead
By the time we reached the water's edge
We saw the river beating on the river bank
Oh the way that it held us in our river bed

It's cold, it's dark
It's not for people with uneasy hearts
But if you're with me on the other side
Strike up the band, we have survived

Until they beat that drum to get you back home
Until they beat it to keep you away

Don't be surprised at your regrets
Don't feel surprised that the water made you wet
There's a shallow down river where the water will forgive ya'
So distend your luke warm bets

Follow me
Oh follow me
Allow me to play the voyager
I'll try to keep you as dry as the hollowed out tree
That he would be wrapped in another man's purse

So take a dive
Oh take a dive
Oh take it out on the stepping stones that make the water rise
Take a dive
Oh take a dive
Take that hair out of your damned eyes
While the waves are away at the Summer Delk Bay

Till they beat that drum to get you back home
Until they beat it to keep you away

Will you burn your bridges down
Singing la la la la la la la
Will you burn your bridges down
Singing la la la la la la la
Will you bang your drum to the brazen sound
Singing la la la la la la la
Will you turn away
How can you turn away
