about

Written in the mountains of Cazadero, California, inspired by the beautiful earth activists I met there, and their ancient hands

lyrics

Concentric circles and parallel lines
we are of one spirit, we are of one mind
Our paths won't cross in the currency time
but I can feel your fingers at the base of my spine
Firm of grip and tender of mirth
kissed by indulgence and the touch of the earth
Standing not to just do as you are sold
Pale one, your hands have grown so bold

My ancestors said to me . . .
You are both first and last
You are both first and last
You are both first and last
You are both first and, you're first and you're

Last, now, you've got a past, now, you hold it so close
Hold it so close to what you own
And leave the lawman by the wayside because
the laws aren't set in stone
I know we all have our intentions but we all
know that this bird has flown
So bring your drums out and dig your damns up because
We are coming home

I had to find out for myself
so I ran my fingers inside of your well
In the dorsal posture the scripture unwinds
trace back the origins left so long undefined
Slender digits startle in their pride
gentle callous, sweet divide
Generations bred into the folds
pale one, your hands have grown so old

Love me, and you can touch me, and you can strike me,
and I'll keep one hand on my own
You know the lawman he keeps it loaded because
he knows his cover is blown
I know we all have our opinions but can you
liberate the skin from bone
It's been a long time, so open your arms wide because
We are coming home
