First Man to the Grave

First Man to the Grave
Night after night
Day after day
Step by step
We came to this race
And it’s the first man to the grave
Watch this busy street
A million running feet
Running in their lives
In waves and in heaps

And it’s the first man to the grave
My love
Come stay with me tonight
It really matters who we are
Hey my busy friend
It doesn’t matter who will win
Running out of faith
And as long as we’re all in
And it’s the first man to the grave
Words can take us many places
But tonight we are going far
And we who’ve got so many faces
We’ve only got one heart
The first man to the grave
My love
Come stay with me tonight
It truly matters who we are
And see if we can keep the silence
You and I are gonna see the stars
And we who’ve got so many faces
We’ve only got one.
