Take Me With You
In and out on this same path
That I followed for years
Can't I look around and ask
How could we still end up here
I can't just hold tight
Wait for them to cut us to ribbons
If the sharpest thing where you come
Is a blade of grass
Oh ho, take me with you
I don't need shoes to follow
Bare feet running with you
Somewhere the rainbow ends, my dear
These injuries
Don't you think we need a new referee?
I can't let the ball drop
Boy, I need some interference
To shut them up
Oh ho, take me with you
I don't need shoes to follow
Bare feet running with you
Somewhere the rainbow ends, my dear
Oh ho, take me with you
Chase rabbits into their burrow
Bare feet running with you
Today even the rain can cut me up
Tears turn to steal
And the wound never heals
In the darkness of November
Well, the witch is in the tower
And the snake is in the bower
And the hunt goes on forever
Now the stake is there to burn
My father's robe is torn
Between cross and Mother
With the blood on your hands
"Come on, what you doing?"
I am fed up with this questioning
Oh ho, take me with you
I don't need shoes to follow
Bare feet running with you
Somewhere the rainbow ends, my dear
Oh ho, take me with you
Chase rabbits into their burrow
Bare feet running with you
Today, today
Oh ho, take me with you
I don't need shoes to follow
Bare feet running with you
Today even the rain
Even the rain
Even the rain
Can cut me up
Take me with you
Take me with you
