This chord
This water This son This daughter This day This time This land It's all mine This Calling Bell This Forge Bell This Dark Bell This The Knife Bell This calling This burden This falling The world's turning This What I thought I knew This What I thought was true This I understood This In the deep wood This Ah there I stood a child so fair This On a certain square This Down the dirty stairs This To see the table set This With golden chairs This Ah to follow, follow, follow, follow there This race And this world This feeling And this girl This revolver This fire This I'll hold it up higher, higher, high |

And then so clear to wonder
To wake with open eyes As the snow across the tundra And the rain across the skies And the rain across the skies So much again and weightless In the motherworld of space We fail to form to come to And the razor mountains fade And the day is cursed in shame In these the world we open So much to lose to save To light the highest beacons And the rose of love will bleed And the rose of love will bleed In these the world we open So much to lose and save To light the brightest beacon And the rose of love will bleed And the razor mountains fade And the day is cursed in shame |

Caught between
The Earth and the sky What too long And what too high Fallen free and holding on Nothing there at all Dropped and lifted Gotta breathe Bottom drifting On the way Holding just a few poor words And nothing at all Reaching out To still the sand No light connects The breaking moments Drifting to another shore There's nothing here That I could change at all Nothing at all Forced to be A broken line Let to hold What we could find Then to learn And go again Nothing sorted out High above A single bird It drifts about The dead volcano Who's to lose And who's to find There's nothing here That I could choose at all Choose at all.. |

Passing over
All the dark blades All the dark blades Of the forewords In the forewords Just a low sound Such a low sound Passing over Drawing closer Sheer horizon Flame horizon Haze of morning Magnets drawing Over the forewords Now entangle All tomorrow Gone. Gone. Through crumbled fingers gone. Can never be recollected. All pastness gone To the crumbled dogma-ing past. Can never be recollected. Passing over... All the dark blades.... |

Thinking of a world and the light of the sun
And all the many lives that were ever begun, Ever begun. Our little world turning in the blue As each day goes there's another one new, Another one new. How many people will we feed today, How many lips will we kiss today, If we wake up? How many worlds will we ever see, And how people can we ever be, If we wake up? Thinking of a world in the light of the sun And all the many lives that were ever begun, Ever begun. |

Great lines of numbers
All bright and shiny All through the ether Some huge, some tiny All though the ether From France to China Unite the people All bottomliners Some brass, some paper, Some gold, some silver, Some full of promise, Some full of anger, In ranks of thousands They fall and stumble All bottomliners We make the number And in the future, New forms of romance: Grenade and landmine In twilit silence With hands that tremble And lives that flounder All bottomliners All undergrounders All undergrounders All undergrounders All undergrounders |

Oh it's just another day,
It's just another day on Earth Oh it's just another day, Just another day, It's just another day on Earth Oh it's just another day on Earth It's just another day on Earth One day, we will put it all behind, We'll say, that was just another time, We'll say, that was just another day on Earth We'll say, that was just another time, One day, we will put it all behind, We'll say, that was just another day on Earth Just another day, It's just another day, Oh it's just another day on Earth It's just another day on Earth |

When all the worlds are lost in snow
I have to move this meaning through; Disperse the force so far engendered All near the steam and summer view And then... remain. Where steeples crash in fire and thunder, Where sheets of steel obscure the land, Where word and sense are torn asunder: Here was the place I chose to stand. Just when I think I'm going under, I... remain. Well all the waves of spin are foaming, And fake muezzin steam and brew, Formed in the fire of all their longings(?) This is the way I took it through, Just when I think I'm going under. This is the way I thought it through; This is the way I took it under... |

My body
So thin So tired Beaten for years Ploughshare to bomb So hard Bonebomb Bonebomb Bonebomb My town So dusty So dry Buildings pushed over Lives heat together Young girls dreaming of beautiful deaths Pop star pictures above their beds Above their heads Troops Everything stolen Except my bones Now I am only bone I waited for peace And here is my peace Here in this still last minute of my life |
