Lady Divine |
When the day, when the day falls to the light |
At the end, oh the end, of my time |
I call to the dark |
Take the bones off my back |
And I chant to the black |
You were my lady divine |
Cause my children are in hiding |
Mortar and pestle they grind |
Those songs whistled through white teeth do scuff the days |
With songs for children to sing |
Those songs whistled through white teeth, do scuff the days |
With songs, for children, to sing |
When the chairs are tucked into the fading song |
And the silver of their pours has grown long |
Oh they call to the dark |
Take the bones off my back |
And they chant to the black |
You were my lady divine |
And they bloat like a bitter wine in their bellies |
Cause the bones have been removed |
From their hunched over backs |
And their children are all grown now |
Mortar and pestle they grind |
Those songs whistled through white teeth still scuff the days |
With songs for children to sing |
Those songs whistled through white teeth still scuff the days |
Those songs for children to sing |
Those songs for children to sing |
