If You Can See Me
I could wear your new blue shoesI should wear your old red dressAnd walk to the crossroadsSo take this knifeAnd meet me across the river
Just chutes and ladders and this is the kissAmerican Anna, fantastic AlsatianFrom nowhere to nothingAnd I go way back
Children swarm like thousands of bugsTowards the lights the beacons above the hillThe stars to the West, the South, the North and to the East
Now you could say I've got a gift of sortsA fear of rear windows and swinging doorsA love of violence and dread of sighs
If you can see me I can see youIf you can see me I can see you
I have seen these bairns wave their fists at GodSwear to destroy the beasts, stamping the groundIn their excitement for tomorrowI could wear your new blue shoesI should wear your old red dressAnd walk to the crossroadsSo take this knifeAnd meet me across the river
I will take your lands and all that lays beneathThe dust of cold flowers, prison of dark of ashesI will slaughter your kind who descend from beliefI am the spirit of greed, a lord of theftI'll burn all your books and the problems they make
If you can see me I can see youIf you can see me.
