Текст (слова) песни: Indigo Girls - Tether

Whatever it was, is wasnt manumission
To spill the blood, to pull the weed
You can bury the past, but its a mausoleum
With the ghost of a fist that wont let us be
Can we bring it together,
Can we call from the mountain to the valley below?
Can we make it better,
Do we tether the hawk, do we tether the dove?
I kicked up the dirt, and I said to my neighbor
"We keep making it worse, we keep getting it wrong"
He tucked in his shirt, he stood a little bit straighter,
He said "We need a few less words dear, we need a few more guns."
But will it bring us together,
Can we call from the mountain to the valley below?
Can we make it better,
Do we tether the hawk, do we tether the dove?
Enduring love
Why so much and so strong, beyond this short existence?
So dont be still
You say theres a long line behind you
And its hardly worth the mentioning
But I will
Cause we may flicker and fade,
But we never will be through with this
I see this world battered but not broken
Theres a fallow heart, its waiting on a sowing hand
You can grow what you want, But one day its gonna rise up
So plant what you need to make a better stand
And well bring it together
And well call from the mountain to the valley below.
And well make it better
Let go of the hawk, we let go of the dove.
I sing to you, all you true believers
With the strength to see this and not be still.
Im telling you now, find the hope that feeds you,
Dont let em bleed you of your will.
