This song feels like a gift....

lyrics

ALCHEMY

Old Oak tree, born from a seed
reach for the skie, burning to ash
dance with the leaves, moan with the branches,
taken for granted, left here to rot

Alchemy, what have you done?
the gold of the sun, the silver moon
What will you do? when theres nothing to lose
theres nothing to prove but to prove that theres nothing left here to prove

youre sitting up there, im standing down here
it all becomes clear that our focus is blurred
learn to be learned, let your head rest’
on a pillow of stone, my dear dispossessed
walk with thy feet, flesh on the ground
drink from the rivers, of these old dirty towns

old willow tree, born from a seed
dance with the leaves on a cool autumn breeze

goodbye my love, that stands there above
for the bodies last work; to return to the dirt
so long my dear, so close and so near
in the arms of sweet death, cradled dispossessed
patriarchy, may it drown in the seas
held deep beneath, until the violence ceases
left bleeding to sink, to the calm ancient floors
drift back to shore, peaceful and swollen

old oak tree, born from a seed
drink in the rain, bathe in the wind
when the fires come, darlin dont run
just stare towards the sun, return to the earth
