This is the last ditch ever I dug |
|
Once there were motives but they have been lost |
|
Dig through the sand still you end at the rock |
|
This is the ditch that I dug |
|
These are the blankets that we should have worn |
|
Now marrow is soaking and taken with cold |
|
Us rag and bone merchants have just greed to lose |
|
This is the ditch that I dug |
|
The ditch it lies empty and waits for your laugh |
|
My head was your shovel and I was your back |
|
And sweat made the river that cut through the flat |
|
This is the ditch that I dug |
|
This is the ditch that I dug |
|
The crows haven't eaten the scraps they were fed |
|
The crows they stay honest and keep to themselves |
|
Their silence infected my stitches gone loose |
|
There will be rain today, yes |
|
There will be rain today |
