lyrics

Place me there in the casket. Lay me down ‘neath the ground. It is there where I’ll love you ‘til I find a way out. Beautifully sings my lovely, haunting ears of the fraught, “Fortitude’s not forgiveness if forgetters forgot.” Oh, have I forgot? You’re so far away though whispers of your love keep my eyes awake. You’re here in the darkening day on shadows of what rests our fading faith. The coal! The child! The rust! Of plagues that robbed our love, Lord. Of dreams we’re dreaming of where we will go. Oh! Here I fall towards destiny’s plot where the reapers of love and the fighters who fought pull limb from soul, so the body goes, and the winds of your call fall of deafening bones. I long to follow where you’ve gone, and my heart it lays with you my love. We’ll see on the destined day. They’ll march the trails we swore wouldn’t fade away. Like a Civil War parade, their carrying the stories our love has made. The church! The lost! The blood! They rattle soil we dug, Lord, with songs our lives have sung slung on their backs. Oh, song of hope that the cardinal crows of our forgotten dreams and a misguided course. Song never wrote, so the story goes, yet the notes are sung true from each bellowing throat. Tilt low. Just for you. Singing, “My darling my heart always lays with you!” I am ready for the night. We are ready for the heights. I am ready to die. We are ready for the bright.
