Be Gone

Come down low
To the ground
Let the mother breathe you down
All the spirits swirling away
Hard to tell the form that they
Take up your arms
Find your heart
Does it know what you’ll do
Come and stand
Side by side
Woman, man and the battles at night
Boil that bark
Braid my hair
See that smoke hell if I care
To write all of my lost brothers
Only to burn the letters
So they reach you somewhere
Be gone, be gone, be gone
Said the little one to the bad ways
Be gone, be gone, be gone
Let the fight be for another day
Dare to write all of my lost brothers
Only to burn the letters
So they reach you somewhere
Be gone, be gone, be gone
Said the little one to the bad ways
Be gone, be gone, be gone
Let the fight be for another day
And I though that my mind was folding in
And I hoped that it wasn’t the rain
But just the vain
And he spoke of holy rollers, how they glide across the hall
And he pictured them in carousels when they were two feet tall
And he wakes up in the eye of the watchmakers dirty glass
And he swims for all the decoys and the lives that they pass
Be gone, be gone, be gone
Said the little one to the bad ways
Be gone, be gone, be gone
Let the fight be for…
Be gone, be gone, be gone
Said the little one to the bad ways
Be gone, be gone, be gone
Let the fight be for…
Be gone, be gone, be gone, be gone
Said the little one to the bad ways
Be gone, for long till you riddle my tone
Let the fight be for another day
