It crashed in the forest |
|
Tearing off the trees |
|
and my pockets full of leaves |
|
Have you seen my brothers lying on the green? |
|
Have you seen my brothers as they swam against the stream? |
|
Did you try to rescue them with your pagan poetry? |
|
Who'll come and bless them in the middle of the sea? |
|
With the winds-a-blowing right to the bone |
|
When the pipes are calling, will you take our bodies home? |
|
Sleepy man, get over it, and come to your senses. |
|
Sleepy man, pass over us, and above the ocean trees. |
|
Resurrected Jesus in the river up to your knees. |
|
Waiting for the rest of us to fall from the trees |
