When you see the end before you fall into the night
You may believe it's your time to fight
You'll freeze in perfect silence
With a rifle on your back
The land before you is dark and flat
When you see the end unfurl with banner high
You may believe it's your time to comply
All the heads turn in one direction
Looking round to see who's right
Who's looking forward to the clear and the bright
Who'll be around to see the ashes of the molten sun
Who'll be the last one to lead you on
So set your sights like you could be found
Take up your ax and we'll till the ground
For the coming year
When you see your driveway turn into a parking lot
For all the creatures you have given thought
You'll flee in no direction
A paper bag over your head
Running towards the things you thought you'd fled
But you hold your lantern tightly
You push it forth
You'll be lighting your own course
So set your sights like you could be found
Take up your ax and we'll till the ground
For the coming year
