The Tain, Pt. III

Lyrics

They settled dust in your hair
 To watch you shake and shout it out
 With our armaments bared
 We shed our bags and travel alls.
 From the lee of the wall
 He comes in chain and chariot
 And all his eunuchs in thrall
 Can scarce lift his line and lariat.
 Here come loose the hounds
 To blow me down.
 Blow me down.
 On this stretch of ground
 I'll lay me down.
 Lay me down.
 To Sleep.
 And now stricken with pangs
 That tear at our backs like thistledown
 The mirror? s soft silver tain
 Reflects our last birthing hour.
 Here come loose the hounds to blow me down
 Blow me down.
 On this stretch of ground
 I'll lay me down
 Lay me down.
 To Sleep.
