Leave Us Alone - Joseph Arthur

He was cut and then there was no fear

The dogs of hell within unborn

And like a ghost without an atmosphere

His voice sang without a song

Singing to the ships as the foghorns blow

Shipping light where darkness hides

The night was blind but it did see him go

For in this dark his light survives

Go away

Leave us alone

We don’t know yet

Who you are

So far

From home

He stands before them as they judge his life

His shadow reaching underneath

He will fight he will reveal his knife

They will question his belief

They will shatter all his teeth

Blood from his mouth in darkness he can see

His suicide his love reborn

And hangin from a noose in secrecy

His mind and spirit will divorce

Go away

Leave us alone

We don’t know yet

Who you are

So far

From home
