The Thread Of Evermore |
Harbringer of death and slaughter — |
(next time round you’ll be the slain) |
Refuse the dying man your water — |
(thirst when you come back again). |
Don’t spare the rod don’t spoil the child — |
(I hope you like to take a beating) |
Feed your face while others starve — |
(you'd better learn to not miss eating.) |
Shining beaty — fair and wise, |
Has served it’s time as dim an sallow |
An honest judge seeks truth through eyes |
Which once gazed lifeless from the gallows. |
Hands that heal the sick and lame, |
Long since held tools of inquisition. |
Tongues which speak words true and sane |
Have chanted sermons on perdition. |
Cross the bridge that spans forever |
Living thread of evermore. |
Without begining ending never, |
Living thread of evermore |
See the footprints in the sand |
Countless lifetimes gone before, |
Point our path with unseen hands |
The living thread of evermore. |
From egg and sperm 'neath sticky sheet, |
To ash and bone or maggot meat, |
The way looks neither pleasant or too long |
So have you stopped to wonder whether |
If when weighted against a feather, |
All your deeds appear so big and strong? |
Cross the bridge that spans forever |
Living thread of evermore. |
Without begining ending never, |
Living thread of evermore |
See the footprints in the sand |
Countless lifetimes gone before, |
Point our path with unseen hands |
The living thread of evermore. |
Light and dark complete the circle |
Find the yang to fit the Yin |
Barren desert — lush green myrtle |
Chase the wind to lift your wing |
From egg and sperm 'neath sticky sheet, |
To ash and bone or maggot meat, |
The way looks neither pleasant or too long |
So have you stopped to wonder whether |
If when weighted against a feather, |
All your deeds appear so big and strong? |
Cross the bridge that spans forever |
Living thread of evermore. |
Without begining ending never, |
Living thread of evermore |
