Bill Callahan & Bonnie "Prince" Billy - Arise, Therefore Lyrics

Bill Callahan & Bonnie "Prince" Billy Lyrics

"Arise, Therefore"
(feat. Six Organs of Admittance)
(originally by Bonnie "Prince" Billy)

There will be no end soon
If I've seen things right that have come
People will be scared
They never will see anything

Arise
Meanwhile all of my friends have been struck dumb
Arise
Arise
How can no final thing come
When our faces are pulled from us
Arise
Arise

How can someone blame
Who they refuse to name
Arise
Arise
For pulling other people down with them
Arise
Arise

Some have risen, they are lucky
Arise
Arise
To have their fall delayed by people
Arise
Arise
What they have is threaded
Grafted, and plotted
Played out and bad
Arise
Arise

Some have made mistakes for us
Waiting by the door for us
Arise

We told them to go ahead
Their support is just a weight
Arise
Arise

Better to sever the weighted limb
Arise
Arise

Where is it hanging tonight
Arise
Arise

It is not looming to propel us along
Arise
Arise

We move ourselves to it
One year to sit in dirt
Arise
Arise

One cycle with which to
Arise
Arise
Arise
Comment upon the
Arise
Arise
Dirt
