lyrics
Mine eyes, conceived, born of mine eyes
Crucified, mine eyes
Descended, mine eyes
Mine eyes, dead and buried,
quick and dead and buried mine eyes,
with hungry things, buried mine eyes
Mine eyes, dead and buried,
arise and go, mine eyes!
Eyes upon eyes upon eyes, arise and go, mine eyes
Scatter! Mine eyes...
Two she-bears came out of the woods,
warned in a dream not to go back—
The star went ahead of them, stopped over the market place—
Two she-bears came out of the woods,
warned in a dream not to go back—
Where young boys lay with lions—
Two she-bears came out of the woods,
warned in a dream not to go back—
Feeling the lust of the ground—
Two she-bears came out of the woods,
warned in a dream not to go back—
And I say, and I say—
Two she-bears came out of the woods—
Scatter—
Warned in a dream not to go back—
make light mine eyes—
Two she-bears came out of the woods—
Defend us—
warned in a dream not to go back—
Defend us!
