Together Again

Lyrics for Together Again

Brothers, I am arriving at the bottom of the well You can wake the village and ring the giant bell Fire in the evening and orange juice at dawn This house is a hospital where everyone was born Here is a newfound baby to load onto the boat He is sweet like a raisin, he is soft like an oat You see a snake, I see a frog Fucked with my boys by the chemical bog I grab my coat, you grab the dog Drinking our beers sitting on the lawn I see a frog, you see a snake Fucked with my boys by the chemical lake Gotta run home for beer and cake Everyone's gonna come back someday Teddy's in the garden, Sally's sleeping in the shade Daddy's in the kitchen, and I'm worried about his brain I will see it fall apart There's a bee in my coffee, and a sigh in my heart This field is a cradle, this field is a marriage bed No flowers are welcome in the garden Here is a rabbit and the cat that ate it's head And here is a family that weeps for its dead You strip in the river, and you paddle upstream And your back's the most beautiful back I have ever seen And one night, did the galaxy start to tighten like a net I can't seem to remember, I can't bear to forget You die in vain, or die in pain That is the way that the good Lord works I've got a dirty job to do Do you wanna do that job with me? My towel is stained, my heart is too Do you wanna see me one last time? Do you wanna how I know you? Do you wanna see your eyes through mine? Daddy's in the kitchen, and I'm worried about his brain Mummy's in the garden, shielding laundry from the rain Jerskin drinks until the end You're a terrible liar and a horrible friend Everybody gathers in the middle of the night Singing dubstep in my trousers to the garden Come down to the kitchen, there's toast and marmalade Two horses are kissing in the field across the lake And I am afraid of lying about something I cannot know But I will poke my head up like a rabbit in the snow I am a cigarette, I am long and white You are a tractor plowing through the night And as I sit in this field, considering my friend Think about how your life is like a biscuit tin Everybody lives, everybody dies Everybody dies eventually Death song, death song, one, two, three! Nobody's a sorrier boy than me Everybody dies eventually Your bones are a loan from the earth and the sea Death song, death song, one, two, three! You are a boat, the waves are crashing in You sink slowly, brave and holy, undefiled by sin Fear no more the heat of the sun You're a wonderful father and a beautiful son Everybody gather, sing "There's no discouragement!" The Lord bless you and keep you
