[Verse 1]
We set out at dusk
We left them, well, not much
The boys were shoutin' and kickin' up dust
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh and as we ran
With the fire behind us and the torch in my hand
I knew I couldn't do it again
[Chorus]
The ghosts were howlin' in the late afternoon
We were singin' along to the same old tune
I turned to my brothers to look 'em in the eyes
There was ash... ash fallin' from the sky
[Verse 2]
The moon cast a little light but the flames lit up the night
All the animals laid down and died and there was ash
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh and as we ran
With the fire behind us and the torch in my hand
I knew I couldn't do it again
[Chorus]
The ghosts were howlin' in the late afternoon
We were singin' along to the same old tune
I turned to my brothers to look 'em in the eyes
There was ash... ash fallin' from the sky
[Bridge]
And who could tell the dogs from the men?
I see their faces and I know where they've been
I know I'm with 'em but I ain't like them! I--
And who could tell the dogs from the men?
I see their faces and I know where they've been
I know I'm with 'em but I ain't like them! I--
[Outro]
It makes me so tired
I was like smoke without the fire
And I know I ain't like them, no!
