Текст песни ...dust


If only dust could talk
What would we hear it say?
Before its brushed aside
Just as its swept away
Its just the evidence
Its of no consequence
Its only flesh and bone
Why dont we leave it alone?
If only dust could gather into lines of chalk
Around a silhouette detective fiction walks
For its the only witness that can testify
Can I spit out the truth?
Or would you rather just swallow a lie?
Why did they dam the land?
How did they flood the plain?
Did they erase the name?
And wipe away the stain
You kept your mouth well shut
Appeared to turn your coat
Now theres a name for you but its stuck in my throat
If dust could only mutter
Or in laughter trill
If it could warn and whisper from the windowsill
But its the only witness that can testify
Can I split out the truth?
Or would you rather just swallow a lie?
Here comes the juggernaut
Here come The Poisoners
They choke the life and land
And rob the joy from us
Why do they taste of sugar?
Oh, when theyre made of money
Here come the Lamb of God
And the butchers boy, sonny
If dust could only gather in the needle track
Then it would skip a beat and it would jump right back
If dust could only gather in a needle track
Then it would skip a beat
And all the sense I lack
[ ...dust Lyrics ]
