about

a song about war.

lyrics

blue river
under the sky
a barge floats by

tree tops are swaying
under the golden sun
we are waiting

I hear you laughing
under the smashed up sky
gun ships are falling

we celebrate the
blessings of divinity
under the bloody moon
and we are dancing

cracks in the mind
and holes in the ground
the lake is on fire
we drink ourselves deaf

dance with me
dance with me
dance with me
dance

the tiger will smile
the blessings of armies


blue river
under the bloody sky
a barge floats by

tree tops are swaying
under the golden dome

we are fucking waiting
