Exegetic Chains |
| Look closely at the shadows |
| On the ground beneath the trees |
| The labors of Hercules |
| Wild grasses on the hills |
| Rippling in the wind |
| Cybele unchained |
| The songs you sing at Christmas time |
| The stories that you tell |
| Well I knew them well |
| Yes I knew them well |
| Say your prayers to whomever |
| You call out to in the night |
| Keep the chains tight |
| Make it through this year |
| If it kills you outright |
| The coins they toss at dancers |
| Whirling in the city square |
| Music on the air |
| The places where we met to share |
| Our secrets now and then |
| We will see them again |
| Change will come |
| Stay warm inside the ripple |
| Of the Panasonic hum |
| It grinds |
| And it roars |
| Headed somewhere better |
| If I have to crawl there on all fours |
| Say your prayers to whomever |
| You call out to in the night |
| Keep the chains tight |
| Make it through this year |
| If it kills us outright |
