The Ram, The Loom, The Hermit Lyrics

Gladness starts with survival

The warp and weft no one can unravel

Eternal rest, perpetual light from the East

Sleeper awake, the dark was just a dream

The tears of the world are constant

They say the same is true of the laugh

Well someone's laughing somewhere

Words don't mean what they used to mean

No they don't mean anything

I ask for a skein of yarn

And I'm given a spool of thread

I'm told I can use it to weave a frame

Revenant, don't come back, it's not what it seems

The bird reclines in her nest

The spider on the web

The weeds grow among the wheat

The bird reclines in her nest

The spider on the web

The weeds grow among the wheat

The bird reclines in her nest

The spider on the web

The weeds grow among the wheat

You are the shepherd

Sheep by the water

Patient we drift

On our way to the slaughter

On our way to the slaughter

You are the shepherd

Sheep by the water

Patient we drift

On our way to the slaughter

On our way to the slaughter
