about

written by Chris Scharling.

lyrics

the steel-faced general stands stone still
watches the blood flow down the hill
they cut us out from underneath
kept us cold and out of reach
the sky exploded in a burst
underground we feared the worst
golden promises told by fools
who search in vain
and drown in pools

let's all dance around the flame
let's all dance around the fire

we couldn't kill, we couldn't care
all we could do was sit and stare
the curtains danced in crooked time
a broken record and a useless mind
we carried the dead as far as they'd go
lit the fire and watched the smoke
we left that road in the past
called the future and left the last

let's all dance around the flame
let's all dance around the fire

Travelers & Thieves Richmond, Virginia

Sinking ships, outlaws, mall cops, and wildfires: a brief sampling of the subjects one will find rubbing elbows with the pounding drums, frenetic guitars, and haunting harmonies in Travelers & Thieves' eclectic catalog of songs.
