For War and Rage Lyrics

The rivers dry so lets go swimming

Splashing puddles on our legs and on our feet

The suns come out the trees they wither

So lets burn them to the ground while we still can

Beat the drums and dance for rain

Pound your feet upon the dirt and yell your praise

Turn the page then tear it clean

Then throw it in the drought tonight at dawn

The beasts are singing praises to the vessels

Then we shoot them with those pointed things we made

Don’t worry little ones we don’t abuse them

We throw what we don’t use back in the bay

Orion’s belt it shines above us

Holding up his skinny frame as we glare on

The milky way it mocks this place

So we prepare for war and for rage

Head dressed and daggered

Fattest in the front will guard the herd

On this night we fight to live or die

To satisfy our greed for blood and lucre

The beasts are singing praises to the vessels

Then we shoot them with those pointed things we made

Don’t worry little ones we don’t abuse them

We throw what we don’t use back in the bay

The trail of bones agitates my feet

Our ancestral road the oasis we never once have found

My mind grows weak my body still

And Mother Earth with me weeps silently
