I will take the knife and cut the tether, I will cup my hand and puff the flame. The wind shall bear me to fairer weathers. Deep wounds, forcing the brand and the sever; Creating within—magmas in my brain! I will take the knife and cut the tether. Alone—it’s beyond and through the never— With war, it’s just us practicing our aims. The wind shall bear us to fairer weathers. I see the bullets dart like dragon’s feathers. I make love in springs full of acid blame. I shall take the knife and cut the tether. Old men making noise; old bowls of leather— Words from parched lips seeking civil refrain. The wind shall bear us to fairer weathers. And so the war knits on years together; Man’s grand plan of securing creed and claim— I will take my knife and cut the tether— The wind shall bear us to fairer weathers.

Cutting the Tether
I will take the knife and cut the tether, I will cup my hand and puff the flame. The wind shall bear me to fairer weathers. Deep wounds, forcing the brand and the sever; Creating within—magmas in my brain! I will take the knife and cut the tether. Alone—it’s beyond and through the never— With war, it’s just us practicing our aims. The wind shall bear us to fairer weathers. I see the bullets dart like dragon’s feathers. I make love in springs full of acid blame. I shall take the knife and cut the tether. Old men making noise; old bowls of leather— Words from parched lips seeking civil refrain. The wind shall bear us to fairer weathers. And so the war knits on years together; Man’s grand plan of securing creed and claim— I will take my knife and cut the tether— The wind shall bear us to fairer weathers.
