The Basket Or the Blade |
| I am lighting fires |
| I am lighting fires and burning everything |
| You are felling trees |
| Composing melodies that I will never sing |
| When the autumn comes |
| We will build our drums and find a place to play |
| Basket or the blade |
| Shaman or charade are you too strong to see |
| That I am so alone |
| Clinging to my throne until they come for me |
| Will you kiss my hair |
| As they drag me to the square |
| Or will you run, run away |
| Tell me |
| Are you |
| The basket or the blade |
| Am I a soldier |
| Returning to parades, oh will you |
| Catch me |
| And hold me while the cheers and echoes fade |
| Will you be the basket or the blade |
| I have never been |
| I have never been in front of |
| Such a crowd |
| Teeth and gleaming eyes |
| Don’t they realize they’re so |
| Insanely loud |
| Underneath their blade |
| I wonder if you’ll stay or if you’ll |
| Run, run away |
| Tell me |
| Are you |
| The basket or the blade |
| Am I a soldier |
| Returning to parades, oh will you |
| Catch me |
| And hold me while the cheers and echoes fade |
| Will you be the basket or the |
| Razor edge |
| Dividing me in two if I should |
| Lose my head |
| Would I be losing you or will you |
| Shelter me |
| From the fire and hide me in your shade |
| The basket or the blade |
| Oh the sirens |
| Awaken every hour |
| I can hear them now |
