Even The Oxen |
Here is the one here is the one here is the one mistake that can not be made |
There is a line that is crossed over once and only once let it be said |
All of the hubris clenched in our fist won’t punch our way out of here |
You know what I’ve told and I tell but you won’t let it pass into your ears |
Even the oxen ramming their heads on wood rails |
Come to know pain before the rusted barrier falls |
Before the radio long before radio waves struck down to touch |
Off the wild flame that took all in its path and trampled the young underbrush |
Music shooed clouds away billowing anxieties are rolled over and out |
Seems like a lot of folks gave up and got out except for the truly devout |
Who like the oxen ramming their heads on wood rails |
Came to be dizzy before the barrier fell |
Love is the one love is the one weapon that hasn’t been brandished yet in this |
song |
Strikes fear in the pockets of bankers and generals without it we can’t carry on |
And all of us knew this at one time from teething to toothless it’s safe to say |
But useless perhaps to point out that we’ve lost our instincts and awe in this |
day |
And like the oxen ramming their heads on tin walls |
Might come to know mercy before the barrier falls |
And I come to know mercy before the barrier falls |
And I come to know mercy before the barrier falls |
Falls falls |
And it falls falls falls |
And it falls falls falls |
