• You Bowed Down

I suppose you're entitled to know why I'm making contact
With acqaintances scattered all over the land
I'd promise you now and again that I'd honor the contract
If it hadn't crumbled away in my hand

Well, we broke that vow independently now
But I don't know why you absolutely deny
You bowed down (you bowed down, you bowed down)
You bowed down (you bowed down, you bowed down)

When you first looked away I might say it was really a kindness
I must have hurt to see how dreams sour
Now they say that justice and love are the next things to blindness
Well, you're getting plenty of both of them now

And so you parade where appointments are made
And never meant to be kept unless you accept
You bowed down (you bowed down, you bowed down)
You bowed down (you bowed down, you bowed down)

You'll value the burnt amber of falling leaves
And you'll long to delay
You feel their breath as they whisper
It won't hurt you now to betray

If you just bow down

And now every time that we meeet on the edge of hysteria
You're helping them sell off some new party line
I remember a time when you would have seemed so superior
And now you say, "Will you please meet this good friend of mine."

So you're in demand as long as you kiss their hand
But all the applause is for their name not yours
You bowed down (you bowed down, you bowed down)
You bowed down (you bowed down, you bowed down)
You bowed down (you bowed down, you bowed down)
You bowed down
