The floodgates fail the heart cowers
Blood of his deeds drowns the town square
Above it all this statue towersAnd as the captain of a sinking ship
The instant the waves reach his toes
Snaps to attention it waits
Commanding some former poseThe inscription on which is blurred
Hey what is the word
What doe his crumbling mad pedestal say
To find my way to you is
Not to find your way to you
Therefore is not to find my way
