Thieving Irons - Letters to Catherine Lyrics
Don’t wait for the summertimeDon’t wait to waste the wineHeal our troubled mindsOur mother’s crying againThe breaking wheel spins aroundCrown falls to her feetThe hailstones ringing loudThis letter to Catherine now sentBulldozers shake this groundPiles of earth, broken, weighs this occupationThis death by politicsJudgement by jury erasedBelieve in this call to graceWhere neighbors and martyrs are savedIf we could sing our hearts outanytime and any placeBut you never listenRemind me againIf I could, I wouldYou’d still dismiss itI see the noise in your eyesYou say “I know this is wrong”With this we bid you goodnightFor you aren’t the only oneAll these engagements we makeThe breaking wheel, falling down in twilightBreaking, still
