lyrics

Hearts & Arrows

It’s your heart, not the arrows
It’s your back, not the blade
It’s your will, not its power
That will live for today

Said a no-good raspy rummy here…sitting next to me

You can love one and others,
You can wander with none,
You can raise up your voice,
You can swallow your tongue.

Said the manic, up and downer here…too stoned for all to see

Well you can win or you can lose it all each deal
While sticks and stones carve scars that one day heal

We can choose to lose our hearts
To the arrows and the darts
Or let ‘em take their beating…
And beat right back to the start.

We can all kill each other
We can all live in peace
Succumb to war’s sickness
Or cure the disease

Said an armchair politician…to his teleprompt TV

Be Kane or be Abel
Rob Peter for Paul
In this Garden of Eden
You can’t save them all

Said a pragmatic preacher…to his existential sheep
