lyrics
Robin was scouting a daffodil sprouting
for love he believed he should find
Known by a feeling laid dormant and teeming
in the deepest folds of his mind
Elsewhere, enshrouded by dewy grass, clouded
by networks of cobwebs and stems,
lie there in waiting, a worm incubating
a delicate wing to extend
Oh, beasts of the street prowl in pre-summer heat
assuming their good fortune to last
But the scythe, she swings heavy,
and those prone to betting will find that those moments,
they pass
Someone suggested that my mind was congested,
baby, I'm feeling alright
It's getting hard to relax on the concrete
but they know that they got you when you cry defeat
So, I'll rest my bones here on the ground
Despite their attempts to wrap rope 'round our necks,
a notion of paradise was found
Cold sunk its teeth into the end of the week
as ribbons were tied around graves
Judae stood shiverin', aging leaves quivering
'round signs that read, "Jesus Saves"
Still no news heard from the edge of the world
regarding the souls that were lost
Bodies lay burning on earth, ever-turning
Claim it on taxes as loss
With pathways forged and advice ignored,
the citadel continues to stand
Constantly rolling on notions of holiness
One to the head, feet, and hands
Someone suggested that my mind was congested,
baby, I'm feeling alright
It's getting hard to relax on the concrete
but they know that they got you when you cry defeat
So, I'll rest my bones here on the ground
Despite their attempts to wrap rope 'round our necks,
a notion of paradise was found
For only this band is invisible-handed
Sights set securely on "I"
Unsure of the source, we prodded and forced
the idea from folds in our mind
Of greatness and grandeur, lacking in candor,
detached from that whence we came
Somewhere in hiding,
a robin was crying,
as the last inch of wild was tamed
