The Harness Lyrics - Brian Eno

Will the rose in all their learning 

Turning brightness to day 

Spur the horns of discerning 

Scout the world along the way 

And in their firm terms of warning 

They return to the sea 

And at the first sign of morning 

They beat on his disease 

So they wail 

As their lies warn them 

Not to fail in the harness 

Not to fall at the shore 

They are lost where the robe is 

Sailors on southern more 

And though they wail with the bonemen 

Farther there somewhere inside 

It doesn't show nights are warning 

Beggars change so you'll burn 

So they go 

There's no way through there to show 

In bar ways under 

Not to fail in the harness 

Not to rage at the shore 

Not to rail in the darkness 

When surrounded by roar 

When to know there's a river 

Some of them walk 

Some of them fall 

In the wars they 

(fade)
