Lyrics
Easter is the day
rise and join us
When I was young
I would crawl out onto my rooftop beneath the moon
waiting for some dark shadow to rise and meet me
late for our appointment.
I sat and waited for years
We will drop them into the world until everything has changed
Today we are dancing on rooftops
wailing confused wolf calls to the sun
crying for the broken folded bones of our shadow
Does Easter Promise to make us whole
rise and join us
we will drop them into the world until everything has changed
Long ago some man with the right hat on said "only 1/2 of you is fit for public consumption". We sent the other half to the corner like a child with a dunce cap . Jung says this is our shadow.
with our shadows cut away
our words have lost their power - there is no weight to our words, words that have weight are like stones - stones when
dropped cause ripples in the ponds of the world.
we will drop them into the world until everything has changed
without our shadow we are half empty
so we seek other things to fills us
things that remind us of our shadow
we drink them we date them we fuck them
but the do not give us back ourselves.
Does Easter promise
