| Last Ditch |
| This is the last ditch ever I dug Once there were motives but they have been lost Dig through the sand still you end at the rock This is the ditch that I dug These are the blankets that we should have worn Now marrow is soaking and taken with cold Us rag and bone merchants have just greed to lose This is the ditch that I dug The ditch it lies empty and waits for your laugh My head was your shovel and I was your back And sweat made the river that cut through the flat This is the ditch that I dug This is the ditch that I dug The crows haven't eaten the scraps they were fed The crows they stay honest and keep to themselves Their silence infected my stitches gone loose There will be rain today, yes There will be rain today |
