lyrics

Become of us
What will become
Of wit and word,
Of courage comb?

Of fertile form
What will become?
The lithe and lean
The barrow bone

Harmony
Ringing and rolling easily
Floating the sorrows through
Beauty blue

Where go the weak?
Where do they fall?
Anatomy collection call

Oh raging ruin
Oh Martha May!
On Golden Road
And granite grain

Every
Colour will run together
And weather the rapids’ flow
When we go.
