Words and Music: Emily Saliers Remember everything I told you Keep it in your heart like a stone And when the winds have blown things round and back again What was once your pain will be your home All around the table the white haired men have gathered Spilling their sons' blood like table wine Remember everything I told you Everything in its own time The music whispers you in urgency Hold fast to that languageless connection A thread of known that was unknown and unseen seen Dangling from inside the fifth direction Boys around the table mapping out their strategies Kings of mountains one day dust A lesson learned, a loving God, and things in their own time In nothing more do I trust But we own nothing, nothing is ours Not even love so fierce it burns like baby stars But this poverty is our greatest gift The weightlessness of us as things around begin to shift Remember everything I told you Keep it in your heart like a stone And when the winds have blown things round and back again What was once your pain will be your home Everything in its own time Everything in its own time ooooooooh-oooooooh-oooooooh-ooooooooh ooooooooh-oooooooh-oooooooh-ooooooooh |
