Calexico
Woven Birds

The plaza in the village
Where mission bells used to ring
Is now crumbled to a pile of stench and ruin

Even the swallows have vanished
No longer return every spring
All the blossoms are buried
‘neath the waste

Out of the shadows grow hatred
Along the corrider crawls fear
Crushed by the promise of hope
That never returned

Watched with a hawk's trained eye
Trees grow silent fruit
‘Neath a suffering sky

Those who have stayed, keep a flame
In memory of the fallen
And pass on the old rites despite the risk
But many more have left here
On mended broken wings

Turning to see your reaction
A tear drop fills your eye
But you protest not to give up or give in

Heading straight for the wreckage
Picking up a shovel and a hoe
Start putting back the bricks one by one

Numbers come out of the woodwork
Curious to see the rebirth
Above the swollen clouds
A strange sound fills the air
A silence never heard
Falling like blessed rain
And the swallows return
As the mission bells ring



Mirror lyrics:


As the mission bells ring
And the swallows return
Falling like blessed rain
A silence never heard
A strange sound fills the air
Above the swollen clouds
Curious to see the rebirth
Numbers come out of the woodwork

Start putting back the bricks one by one
Picking up a shovel and a hoe
Heading straight for the wreckage

But you protest not to give up or give in
A tear drop fills your eye
Turning to see your reaction

On mended broken wings
But many more have left here
And pass on the old rites despite the risk
In memory of the fallen
Those who have stayed, keep a flame

‘Neath a suffering sky
Trees grow silent fruit
Watched with a hawk's trained eye

That never returned
Crushed by the promise of hope
Along the corrider crawls fear
Out of the shadows grow hatred

‘neath the waste
All the blossoms are buried
No longer return every spring
Even the swallows have vanished

Is now crumbled to a pile of stench and ruin
Where mission bells used to ring
The plaza in the village
