Catatonia

Acapulco Gold

Catatonia


Doubters and cowards, heroes all 
Deaf to clarion call 
For whom does it toll? 
For whom does it toll? 

But all the dreams subside 
They're wrapped in America's suicide 

Play in the roadside sand 
Bleached in significant sun 
To where would you run? 
To where will you run? 

But all the dreams subside 
They're wrapped in America's suicide 

Swansong and bluebird 
Still rousing the crowd 
Sweat in your common shroud 
In old familiar crowds, with old familiar sounds 

But all the dreams subside 
They're wrapped in America's suicide 

When the hanging is over 
If the hangin' is over 
Turn to Acapulco Gold
