I have come to a foreign shore Looks familiar, I've been here before There's my family, there's my house But we don't belong here, we've gotta get out I'm a newborn baby, I've just been born I'm ducking and dodging through tall stalks of corn I'll take the job if the money's good But an ancient strain runs in my blood Forgotten language plays in my mind I'm always searching for a word I just can't find Wouldn't make it a day out here, I couldn't get by Without this underground network on which I rely Change goes on in semi-darkness Long shadows in the alley at dawn Those who sow will soon harvest Those who rule will soon be leaving the throne We travel in tandem, we blend right in But we lock eyes when we pass, a small nod of the chin Suitcase in the closet, supplies in the drawer There may come a day when you'll see us no more I look calm and collected, I seem at ease But in my mind, the water's up past my knees We're playing the long game, we're playing for keeps We're drawing our plans up while the enemy sleeps The fire is lit now, cat's out of the cage We stand in the half-light at the edge of the stage You won't know it's happening 'til it's already done And the queen in the shadows steps into the sun Change goes on in semi-darkness Long shadows in the alley at dawn Those who sow will soon harvest Those who rule will soon be leaving the throne
