Indigo Girls - Jonas & Ezekial Lyrics
I left my anger in a river running highway 5New hampshire, vermont, bordered byCollege farms, hubcaps, and falling rocksVoices in the woods and the mountaintopsI used to search for reservations and native landsBefore I realized everywhere I standThere have tribal feet running wild as fireSome past life sister of my desireJonas and ezekial hear me nowSteady now and dont come outIm not ready for the dead to show its faceWhose turn is it anyway?Anyway?Now when I was young my people taught me wellGive back what you take or youll go to hellIts not the devils land, you know its not that kindEvery devil I meet becomes a friend of mineEvery devil I meet is an angel in disguiseJonas and ezekial hear me nowSteady now and dont come outIm not ready for the dead to show its faceWhose angel are you anyway?White - chain - rope - fear(hush my darling)Be still my dearA bullet in the head, now hes deadA friend of a friend, someone saidHe was an activist with a very short lifeI think theres a lesson here - he died without a fightIn the war over land where the world beganProphecies say its where the world will endBut theres a tremor growing in our backyardFear in our heads, fear in our heartsProphets in the graveyardJonas and ezekial hear me nowSteady now and dont come outIm not ready for the dead to show its faceWhose turn is it anyway?Jonas and ezekial hear me nowSteady now I feel your ghost aboutIm not ready for the dead to show its faceWhose angel are you anyway?I said theres prophets in the graveyard(now I walk in beauty)Prophets in the graveyard(beauty is before me)Prophets in the graveyard(beauty is behind me)(above and below me)
