Rattleman Lyrics by Daniel O’Sullivan

Folly

0

Rattleman rattles in the wind
I remember his face before he was rattling
Hat on and pockets full of tin
I remember the seas would part as he wandered in
He didn't ever really question it

Fortune has smiled on him again
He could see the stars were just an imagining
Perils return from whence they came
Just for a while his veins would run blue again
And all along he couldn’t handle it

Now she's sitting on a dahlia
All the rattlesnakes you maimed have come back to amaze
Now she's sitting on a dahlia
All the rattlesnakes you blamed have come back with a tale

Now she dreams the saddest song
When she sees the damage done
When she hears the rattlesong

Shedding another skin in the sun
Knowing full well that you’ll grow another one
Never, ever even questioned it

A broken yolk
Of once a soul
Will split the mind out
