Who will carry this water to the flames?
When the fires of greed claim the lives of these slaves
And the world keeps turning theres no time to stop and think
Beaten and broken, hoodwinked and jinxed
My friend my foe my heart my soul
As we bleed we know nothing of the truth that unfolds
And the world is burning there’s no time for rhetoric
Justice oh justice, may we be acquitted
All these sorrows drag me down
I want nothing more than what the grace of my heart can bear
And if I live tomorrow meet me there
Oh people come look on this mess that we’ve made
But you all look around for someone to blame
But the victim and culprit are one in the same
Mercy oh mercy save us the shame
My life my love my joy my pain
And we’re just the same at the end of the day
And soon enough when we sleep in our graves
We’ll be together forever that day
All these sorrows drag me down
I want nothing more than what the grace of my heart can bear
And if I live tomorrow meet me there

Bluebird my old friend, where have you been?
She said “I’ve been out across the ocean to the distant land of magic and forgotten dreams
Yeah way out across the barren sands, won’t forget what I’ve seen
And I’ve come home now to rest my wings and breath deep into these sweet memories”
I said I know this feeling, I do, I know it well
As days trickle down into the back of my mind
And I can’t forget, no I can’t forget
And this breath, as fresh as youth, as old as time
Is yours and mine and nothing at all, so breath easy Bluebird
She said she said she said
“I’ve come home I’ve come home I’ve come home
And I found what I was looking for
It was in my heart in my blood in my bones
In the sun the moon the Earth and the space that separates them all”
Yeah just like the jack rabbit jumped jack for his namesake
Pulled himself out of a hat and said “oh well, I am that”
’N of all the strange things I’ve seen and still can’t forget
Oh well, I am that
And Autumn leaves are falling on a cold May morning
Bluebird she is singing to the day
And the snowdrops and mist falls, sunshine and shade
Upon my home on sandstone

There’s some little greens growin’ in the cracks in the pavment side
And there gonna get stomped down but it won’t stop them tryin’
And they got no cares, they got no fears and I got nothin’
You can buy a lie, sell your soul, go to war and pay the toll
In a sick sad world
There are no shadows before the mornings dawn an when it glows I know that it is so
Dragonfly flies through my window, says hello then off it goes
And the trees are green and my heart is blue
And the sun is in the sky just like you are you
And you got no time, you got none
And I got nothin’
There are no shadows before the mornings dawn an when it glows I know that it is so
Dragonfly flies through my window, says hello then off it goes
Fly fly dragonfly this’ll be the day that you die
It’s a New Years day ‘neath a clear blue sky what a wonderfull day to say goodbye
And how the children cry, the mother sighs and the politicians lie
And the debts are paid and the graves are shallow and the glade is green and the melody is mellow
Fly fly dragonfly this’ll be the day that you die
It’s a New Years day ‘neath a clear blue sky what a wonderfull day to say goodbye
There are no shadows before the mornings dawn an when it glows I know that it is so
Dragonfly flies through my window, says hello then off it goes

To the ocean

Mother mother of earth and stone
Blood and bone
Caught in the rivers flow
To the ocean you bring me home
So it goes
All rivers flow to the ocean
So it goes
To the ocean you bring me home

Why does the caged bird still sing?
When he’s stunted and bottled and clipped at the wings
All through the Winter we suffer till Spring
When the heat of the day breaths life to all things
Far from heaven, far from the gate
The souls of the soil live out there small fate
Ever to wound why this is the way
Never to worry just live for the day
Now farewell to the land that bore me
The time has come for me to take my leave
Time now to wonder time now to breath
With the salt and the sand, time to be free
Farewell to the land that bore me
Over the mountains over the plains
The song of the shepherd is calling your name
When words are forgotten and nothing remains
When we’re dead and gone the bones are laid in the grave
Farewell to the land that bore me
Secrets and sorrows, ships in the bay
Sail way to another place
Far from nowhere, over the way, pure and empty
Farewell to the land that bore me

The middle of nowhere

And I’ve wasted time and so to time has wasted me
In the middle of nowhere I could sink like a stone in the sea
At the end of the line there’s nothin’ to see
Just your reflection in bore water tears my dear
In the middle of nowhere I could sink like a stone in the sea
In the middle of nowhere I could sink like a stone in the sea
And I’ve wasted money and that means nothing to me
Throw it all in the river let it be washed clean
My thoughts are spinnin’ round like a rag in the washing machine
Wrung out and hung up and soiled again it seems
In the middle of nowhere I could sink like a stone in the sea
In the middle of nowhere I could sink like a stone in the sea
Standin’ at the crossroads I don’t know which way to go, oh me
Oh me oh my oh why oh why
And I’ve wasted time and so to time has wasted me
In the middle of nowhere I could sink like a stone in the sea
In the middle of nowhere I could sink like a stone in the sea
In the middle of nowhere I could sink like a stone in the sea
In the middle of nowhere I could sink like a stone
