Brazen Head Lyrics
Only passing thoughts of times long gone, tonight
9000 miles away I hear your songs, but I
I seek the comfort of the bottle
and then I let my mind to wander
to the faces that I knew
and to the places that I went with you
You told me all your stories
through the trebled din
but I haven't finished drinking
so please tell them all again
The brazen head, you overwhelm me
with the powers of an ancient spell
old and the new, they come around
to spend their time with you
ten years I dreamed about you
now I haven't had a drink without you
a toast for those who've passed
and to the rest let's finish off the glass
You told me all your stories
through the trebled din
but I haven't finished drinking
so please tell them all again
You told me all your stories
through the trebled din
but I haven't finished drinking
so please tell them all again
Well, let me tell you about how I've sinned
and all the places that I've been
all the battles that I've lost
and all scars that I've caused
'cause if there's one thing that I know
it's that all these people they come and go
so that is all and that was then
but I'll come back and do it again
Only passing thoughts of times long gone, tonight
9000 miles away I hear your songs, but I
I seek the comfort of the bottle
and then I let my mind to wander
to the faces that I knew
and to the places that I went with you
You told me all your stories
through the trebled din
but I haven't finished drinking
so please tell them all again
You told me all your stories
through the trebled din
but I haven't finished drinking
so please tell them all again
9000 miles away I hear your songs, but I
I seek the comfort of the bottle
and then I let my mind to wander
to the faces that I knew
and to the places that I went with you
through the trebled din
but I haven't finished drinking
so please tell them all again
with the powers of an ancient spell
old and the new, they come around
to spend their time with you
ten years I dreamed about you
now I haven't had a drink without you
a toast for those who've passed
and to the rest let's finish off the glass
through the trebled din
but I haven't finished drinking
so please tell them all again
through the trebled din
but I haven't finished drinking
so please tell them all again
and all the places that I've been
all the battles that I've lost
and all scars that I've caused
'cause if there's one thing that I know
it's that all these people they come and go
so that is all and that was then
but I'll come back and do it again
9000 miles away I hear your songs, but I
I seek the comfort of the bottle
and then I let my mind to wander
to the faces that I knew
and to the places that I went with you
through the trebled din
but I haven't finished drinking
so please tell them all again
through the trebled din
but I haven't finished drinking
so please tell them all again

I don't understand what or who the brazen head is, in this context, nor what the overall meaning with the lyrics is? Is it about reminiscing older times, friends and so on?
the Brazen Head is a small little bar in san francisco. i don't know these guys personally, but i assume its where they hung out and told stories and got drunk. about all the patrons who come and go in the bar and how they couldn't wait to drink there and now all they do is drink there? i think that's what this is about, i could be wrong!
