Lyrics
I will go to the bottom
Bathe my soul in its sorrow
I pass through red-skinned children
Who linger near walls of stolen places
And there's a man with a rifle pointed at me
And he's talking to a figure I cannot see
Sending his bullet floating over to me
So the people that I don't understand
Disappear as I'm struggling to stand
While the blood at the tip of my hand
Empties me from the grasp of this rotten land
The past has brought the last traces of ladies thin and pale
To the earth and to those who can see them
Dancing childlike and free
Still I love her endlessly
As the others give their lives to the sea
While the blood at the tip of my hand
Empties me from the grasp of this rotten land
