Closing Night - The Avett Brothers

The show was over it’s all in the name

It never was before but this ain’t the same

So try to imagine a time and a place

Where the enemy won and the hero was slain

And poetic justice burns in the minds

Of five diying soldiers on the front lines

With nobody’s singing in nobody’s ears

No one’s disappointed, nobody hears

I know a lady, promise her name

The price of her visit suffering and pain

And we gladly waited and we gladly paid

We watched the sun rise, she never came

An electric current moves us around

We sank to our knees to worship the sound

But nobody told us that we’d rise again

Imagine a hero unable to win

Imagine a hero unable to win
