cricket blue - psalm lyrics
down by the river i sat and wept when i remembered zion
there on the poplar i hung my harp, my songs all to forget
play us a song, new lover said. take down your harp! take up the pen!
but no song of mirth to sing again, for all songs came from zion
may i lose my hand
may my tongue cling to my mouth
oh, jerusalem, leveled to the ground
all this garlic sprouting yellow should have died, but it thrives
lay my head on some new pillow; i don’t cry
on the daybed i sat and wept when i remembered zion
was zion my mirror? what did his hands look like? what is a poplar tree?
you feel so tired, my comfort said. and all things wild must go to bed
the paint gone dry, the yeast all dead. i hang my harp for zion
did i lose my hand?
does my tongue cling to my mouth?
oh, jerusalem, would you know me now?
all these houseplants growing flowers — are they bad?
and these dogs who’ve lost their mothers, still they’re glad — are they bad?
is zion safe? he said he’d drown
in jerusalem, my wild town
draw the shade; it’s far from here
it’s all okay; it disappeared
