Dandelion

Wind
Pick up this dandelion flower
Blow it far away from here
Where the world has never seen
The beauty that it knows
It lies softly where it goes
The meadow
Sun
Turn this grass from green to brown
The August sun so cruel
It sets fire to the rule
And not falling
What you waiting for?
It’s time for you to ride
Close my eyes and keep me safe from all I know
'Til the life is dried and gone
And the ghosts have all moved on
Brother, brother, keep me safe from all I know
'Til the dandelion goes
The dandelion goes
Blow your wishes for the one thing I can give
The sacrifice you live
The blood, the blood that must be spilled
Illuminate, and that can show me what’s inside
The places that you find
The secrets that you hide
Brother fly, let it die for what it knows
The ruthless truth it shows
The puck, the puck that it unfolds
Brother, brother, keep me safe from all I know
'Til the dandelion goes
The dandelion goes
