I was born in 1865 in the southeastern united states of america
On this my plantation, on this my plantation
So simple until that day
Lying in the hot sun
Lying in the hot sun
Tried to wake him
But he would not awaken. (drop the bucket and run)
Asked my father, but did not question
Saw it fall, saw it fall (drop the bucket and run)
I thought it made him free
I thought it made him (run away, get away) free
Wish i would have said this before (when I was still alive)
I thought that I was so free...
Thought that you might have learned from my mistakes
But you've only regenerated
All the things i've
Come to know and hate
I saw it fall the last drop to the bucket
Onto the blade of grass
And I thought it might have made him free

Lay Down and Die

I long to live again
To be a part of this creation
To be a part of this procession
Saw the procession going by
And it lead me to such sweet regression
This is why he said that
I would be the one
And only this is why he said that
I would be the sacrifice
This is why he said
That i would lose my freedome
That I would lose
And I let it slide
And I lay down here and die
It cuts me in two
When I let it slide it cuts me (so deep)

You can't wait to breathe again
The product is you

Counter
04:08

With haste and flight in all her steps
She comes walking down this way again
More of a flight than a walk
I know the course, know the way
So much better than she could
Could ever know
I charted it for her
I charted it (for her)
Why canโt I know with more than lungful lusting eyes
Never speak, never know these things at all
I brought the counter, I brought the cutter
I bought it, I brought it
I know it
When I doubt

Battle of Tippercanoe
03:06
|
|||
I drew a line into the sand
It fell down to me (from heaven)
One thousand men crossed my line
Raped sky
Drag the line
My shores become the riverbed
My life becomes a line
In the sand

Parthenon
03:30
|

Icicle arms
Earthen legs
She begins to crumble
My
Mother
Begins to crumble
With icicle arms and
Earthen legs
She is holding on
But I've already let go
The war
Is over but the troops
Still storm the shore
At 0:600 I felt the
Barrel
In my ribs
When they storm the shore
They pushed the barrel deeper
This is my parthenon
This is where i wonder
With icicle arms and
Earthen legs, she beings to
Melt away
