Indigo Girls
Tether

Whatever it was, is wasn't manumission
To spill the blood, to pull the weed
You can bury the past, but it's a mausoleum
With the ghost of a fist that won't let us be
Can we bring it together,
Can we call from the mountain to the valley below?
Can we make it better,
Do we tether the hawk, do we tether the dove?
I kicked up the dirt, and I said to my neighbor
"We keep making it worse, we keep getting it wrong"
He tucked in his shirt, he stood a little bit straighter,
He said "We need a few less words dear, we need a few more guns."
But will it bring us together,
Can we call from the mountain to the valley below?
Can we make it better,
Do we tether the hawk, do we tether the dove?
Enduring love
Why so much and so strong, beyond this short existence?
So don't be still
You say there's a long line behind you
And it's hardly worth the mentioning
But I will
Cause we may flicker and fade,
But we never will be through with this
I see this world battered but not broken
There's a fallow heart, it's waiting on a sowing hand
You can grow what you want, But one day it's gonna rise up
So plant what you need to make a better stand
And we'll bring it together
And we'll call from the mountain to the valley below.
And we'll make it better
Let go of the hawk, we let go of the dove.
I sing to you, all you true believers
With the strength to see this and not be still.
I'm telling you now, find the hope that feeds you,
Don't let 'em bleed you of your will.


Mirror lyrics:

Don't let 'em bleed you of your will.
I'm telling you now, find the hope that feeds you,
With the strength to see this and not be still.
I sing to you, all you true believers
Let go of the hawk, we let go of the dove.
And we'll make it better
And we'll call from the mountain to the valley below.
And we'll bring it together
So plant what you need to make a better stand
You can grow what you want, But one day it's gonna rise up
There's a fallow heart, it's waiting on a sowing hand
I see this world battered but not broken
But we never will be through with this
Cause we may flicker and fade,
But I will
And it's hardly worth the mentioning
You say there's a long line behind you
So don't be still
Why so much and so strong, beyond this short existence?
Enduring love
Do we tether the hawk, do we tether the dove?
Can we make it better,
Can we call from the mountain to the valley below?
But will it bring us together,
He said "We need a few less words dear, we need a few more guns."
He tucked in his shirt, he stood a little bit straighter,
"We keep making it worse, we keep getting it wrong"
I kicked up the dirt, and I said to my neighbor
Do we tether the hawk, do we tether the dove?
Can we make it better,
Can we call from the mountain to the valley below?
Can we bring it together,
With the ghost of a fist that won't let us be
You can bury the past, but it's a mausoleum
To spill the blood, to pull the weed
Whatever it was, is wasn't manumission
