The Wheel and the Knife
02:49

There's a book on a table in the room of a house
In a land that's driven by the wheel
There's a knife on the doorstep of a parish church
In a town where the sky is the color of steel
There's a fool giving order to the farmer and the priest
In a land where no one has enough to eat
There's a shadow that moves across the wheel
Until it settles on the knife in the farmer's field.
Chorus:
In the month of the wheel / in the season of the knife
In the year of the fool / when the shadows come to life
There are songs that sing on the tenement steps
Where the children play with gruesome things
Filled with secret words that they can’t forget
Made to tug at your heart strings
Chorus:
In the month of the wheel / in the season of the knife
In the year of the fool / when the shadows come to life
In the month of the wheel / in the season of the knife
In the year of the fool / when the sun comes out at night
The wheel forever turning/turning
The Knife stabs and slashes and cuts away
The fool’s eyes are burning/burning
In the Sun in the Shadows in the Night and the Day
The Wheel forever spinning/spinning
The Knife so cold, so sharp, so bright
The Fool foolishly grinning/grinning
In the Shadows in the Sun in the Day and the Night

Is this a town or some kind of circus?
