lyrics

In the hollow souls, I see your hope (oh oh oh)
sow the seeds of art into their woes (oh oh oh )
Oh, I watch you go long into night

Oh, when will you sleep dear?
When will you save your lonely heart from your drive?
All your disco jungles
All your frescoed fields were empty lots at one time

Your love monsoon, it can free the desert life –
A city of dust –
Graffiti-bloom, a flight of beats diffused the light
You can breathe now...
Saffron moon, a dervish dreams he’s on his head
- spinning with lust -
A garden of you – a poet sings of peace transpired
Rest your feet now

Seeds of “we survive”
Seeds of “we thrive”
The seeds of hope you sow (oh oh) with your life
(oh oh oh) We ...survive

In the cresting fields, I see your touch (oh oh oh oh oh )
amplify itself through your trust...of the doers
Oh, I watch you go long into night
Oh, when will you sleep dear?
When will you save your lonely heart from your drive?
All your Butoh geysers,
All your bramble looms were empty lots at one time

We survive, I know
We survive, I know

--For Tracie D. Hall
