|
There's a place beyond the sticks and stones |
|
Past the piles of broken bones |
|
It could melt a frozen heart |
|
If it needs to be so |
|
It's the place to cut the weeds and wires |
|
And dodge the thorns and quills |
|
It's a place divides divide |
|
And the rivers stand still |
|
It is time to weather stormy seas |
|
And suck the venom clear |
|
We could clean the poison veins |
|
And while we are here |
|
We could shake the buzzards off our tails |
|
And keep the snakes at bay |
|
Hear the sirens fade and the thunder rumble away |
|
It's the place tectonic plates will pass each other not to touch |
|
That's the sound of the new silent life |
|
It's the place where all divides divide and the rivers all stand still |
|
That's the sound of the new silent life |
