Of Monsters & Heroes & Men Lyrics - Hey Ma - James

Stray cats with fish heads 

Feeding their litters 

Feral kids fight 

Over rats tailed from gutters 

Bookie mouth brokers 

Rotten fruit sellers 

Pickpockets ghost through the crowd 

He climbs onto boxes 

By market stall traders 

Toothless and grey haired 

Thousand yard stare 

He had a vision 

Which broke the receiver 

Receiving transmission 

Surface to air

20 Classic Christmas Lyrics to Celebrate The Holiday Season 

Either way. I'm in awe of you 

Either way. We'll survive. We'll survive 

Conjuring devils, 

Angels and demons 

Only the children see shape to his tone 

Laughing and crying 

His song fell upon us 

We buried his treasure along with the bones 

Arms held aloft 

A Y to the sky 

Innocent witness 

He testified 

Drained of his purpose 

He falls off the quayside 

Absorbed by the ocean 

Rolled by the tide 

Photos 

Either way. I'm in awe of you. 

Either way. We'll survive. 

Either way. I'm in awe of you. 

Either way. We'll survive. 

We'll survive. 

Under the power lines 

Which crackle and sparkle 

Under the freeway 

Now mostly rubble 

The hungry still gather 

To fill up with stories 

Of monsters and heroes and men 

Under the stars 

Which prick us and call us 

Connect us to hope 

That perfection's within is 

Here on the ground 

We're reckless and hopeless 

Damned by the slip of a pen 

Rambling poets 

Manic with vision 

We are the drivers yet we feel driven 

Moths in the moonlight 

Fooled by a flashlight 

Caught in a jam jar 

Gasping for air 

Rambling poets 

Manic with vision 

We are the drivers yet we feel driven 

Moths in the moonlight 

Fooled by a flashlight 

Caught in a jam jar 

Gasping for air 

Either way. I'm in awe of you. 

Either way. We'll survive. 

We'll survive.
