Bonewreath

from Chapter & Verse by Quiet Child

/

lyrics

For years you have been a teacher
And I am thankful for your words
And when I sought your wisdom
You taught with kindness and with love

Father, why do you forget yourself?
It's as if, sometimes, you're not yourself

In league with my admiration
There is a question I must ask
How can your intellectualism
Coexist with fairy tales

As dusk begins, as your life's work ends
How can one look back on what they've done
When so many others still have not begun to try
To reason why
Sixty years of listening to the word
To find this late it's mostly quite absurd
And I wonder, is there some satisfaction as you see
This crushing cycle finally cease to be
