Let 'Em Down Easy

from The Way We Burn by Three For Silver

/

lyrics

there’s no promise won’t stay kept
no lie won’t stay told
no vow won’t stay broke
no joke won’t get old
I try to let ‘em down easy
all things seek their rest
I tell you the farther from this life
the nearer to the next

when the tree’s are scratching on the full moon’s back
when there’s eyes in the branches, and claws in the thatch
when the stars are hiding, and the clouds are lyin’ down
you’d better kneel in the mist
put your ear to the ground

chorus
i tell you death is not the end
as that dirty dust settles in
it is there your reward begins
i tell you death is not the end

kids want their mothers
mothers want their kids
victims cry, “who dunnit?”
it’s the killer know who did
bitter sisters keep on fightin
true lovers never tire
while the cook says, “there’s always more room on the fire”

chorus

come join us, please join us
we need no strength to carry on
there is no rest for us
because nothing is ever gone

whether your cup runneth over
or your well is runnin dry
whether your fire is burnin low
or there’s a redness in your sky
you were made to cross the river
made to wade up on this shore
not like it’s something no one’s done before

chorus
