Seen you smiling, good as rainto the scorched moss in the canyons and the burning leavesThe windmills with their sorrow and cold eyestanding on a hillWith arms as still as dirt in a tombcrying "where is the wind?"We hit the air like feathers blowing souththe places that we've come and beennearly brought us to our kneesI see your smile through the fire of the burning livesAshes whipping up like water down a drainHang your headHeard you laughing as real as tearsthe sound comes falling off your lips and eyesand shakes the groundThe scarecrows with their spiteful eyestheir arms hung down to their sidesWondering what of their great deed deserves such defeatI've seen a killing in the cold wild snowThe tones that rang from off the bladewere never heard beyond the deedI see your smile through the fire of burning livesashes whipping up like water down a drainSongtexteHang your head on me.[With luck we'll haul herthis stinking swamp will surely drown The ocean wind had gone throughthe scars they're hidden from their headIt's hidden in the treethey were swinging like a frightful runnin'And the heart as naked as a Jaybirdit brought me on my knees...]I see your smile through the fire of burning livesashes whipping up like water down a drainHold your head high!
