Rags, The Digger Lyrics by The Illalogical Spoon

experiment #4 The Great Wound and the Wild Joy Part B: Another Log for the Fire

0

All alone, I wanna be
Other people, I have had enough
All alone, I wanna be
Other people, I have had enough

Well I was born out in the west
A child of the wilderness
Oh these people come to see me
Want to kill or wanna be me

I don't need you to leave me alone
My sisters and my brothers
They are gone, gone, gone
I'm the last wolf left to roam
One day I'll go as well
My energy an aspen sapling
I will feed an elk

But right now I wanna live
So you have to come and find me
That's no metaphor
I don't believe it's my hide
You're truly hunting for

Oh Bill you think you're wild, man?
But your heart's still civilized
You are only an alien here
Way down with your supplies

Oh this is freedom
To be a part of the world that you feed on
Half those souls before me
Reflects the glory in the snowman at my feet
I see that Milky Way Trail

Well a fallen stone is without wings
But it's unconcerned with that
Go gracefully with gravity
Knowing what you're doing
And all paths lead to water
Composed of trek and sign
And the workers struck fluoride
For our end time

And water leads to water
See the eternal dove
Whether we sink or swim
She's hovering above
To redeem us from the life
That we take here to exist
I wrench the trap from my legs
But you have clasp of my wrist

All my life I was a killer
Drank the blood still warm
But I never knew hatred
Till I saw it in the form
Of the devil in a man on the horizon
Gun aimed at my heart
Self ostracization
From all creation he stands apart

Oh this is love
To know with intimacy
The life that you consume to be here
Oh Bill you're clever but
I heard you say only too late
"Rags, what have I done!?"
You've paved the way for the city

All alone, I wanna be
Other people, I have had enough
All alone, I wanna be
Other people, I have had enough

Well, oh, Bill got old and quiet
Took one image to his grave
Of a proud wolf standing before
Mountains untamed

And that wild western valley
Through his moist-eyed gaze
This is how it was
When I liked it best he whispered
Now it's gone, gone, gone
And I too disappear

Oh it's a hard, hard life
And it ain't over yet
It's a hard life
And we all got our regrets
You may cause more damage
You will break more hearts
You will sabotage the best things
Even as they start
And you won't get your justice
And you'll lose sight of home
You'll be crowded or be lonely
Only a bag of bones

But Rags your spirit keeps me going
Oh how you fought for that one good thing
To see another day
In the light that fills the whole world
Oh the ecstasy
Is worth the trauma of being alive
