[Verse 1]
When we all ran back into the briars
We told our children 'bout the foreign shore
When we threw our boots into the fire
We told 'em all about the tug of war
Wanna tell 'em 'bout the seed and the shovel
About the prison and the promised land
Gonna tell 'em 'bout the dream of the devil
About the hurtin' and the healin' hand, that hand
[Chorus]
'Cause the music never lasts too long
For the singers and the endless song
[Verse 2]
When we heard our words up in the mirror
We told our children how to hold their tongues
When we held our heads beneath the river
We told 'em all about the iron lung
Gonna tell 'em 'bout the sins of the father
'Bout the junkie and the jubilee
Gonna tell 'em 'bout the roots in the water
About the killin' in the quiet night of trees
When we all ran back into the briars
We told our children 'bout the foreign shore
When we threw our boots into the fire
We told 'em all about the tug of war
Wanna tell 'em 'bout the seed and the shovel
About the prison and the promised land
Gonna tell 'em 'bout the dream of the devil
About the hurtin' and the healin' hand, that hand
[Chorus]
'Cause the music never lasts too long
For the singers and the endless song
[Verse 2]
When we heard our words up in the mirror
We told our children how to hold their tongues
When we held our heads beneath the river
We told 'em all about the iron lung
Gonna tell 'em 'bout the sins of the father
'Bout the junkie and the jubilee
Gonna tell 'em 'bout the roots in the water
About the killin' in the quiet night of trees
