The Decemberists - Joan in the Garden Text

Songtext zu Joan in the Garden

In a book I found
Joan in the garden
I will write this down
I will lay her heart in mine
For a time
Write a line
Erase a line

In the dawning light (In the dawning light)
As she left her body
Gifted second sight (Gifted second sight)
Did she lay her dowry by
Lay it by
Write a line

Erase a line

And if you listen closely
You can hear them singing
Ho, oh oh, oh oh
Ho, oh oh, oh oh
And if you listen closely
You can hear them singing
Ho, oh oh, oh oh
Ho, oh oh, oh oh
Hosanna

Make her ten miles tall (Make her ten miles tall)
Make her arms cleave mountains
Let her temptors fall (Let her temptors fall)
Make her tears weep fountains by
Now to try:
Write a line
Erase a line

And if you listen closely
You can hear them singing
Ho, oh oh, oh oh
Ho, oh oh, oh oh
And if you listen closely
You can hear them singing
Ho, oh oh, oh oh
Ho, oh oh, oh oh
Hosanna

Just another tinsel ornament
Another troubled sky
We are folded in the firmament
Catch us as we fly

I don't remember what I ought to be
I only know what's right
I'm suspended from the orrery
Bursting into light


If you listen closely
You can hear them singing
Ho, hosanna, hosanna

If you listen closely
You can hear them singing
Ho, hosanna, hosanna yeah
Hosanna yeah
Hosanna, hosanna yeah
Hosanna yeah
Hosanna, hosanna yeah
Hosanna yeah

Over stone and grapevine
Over the souls on the breadline
There's a reckoning at hand
Our hand

See them flayed at the flagpole
Catch it all on your console
We have come at your command
We stand
We stand

Blessed babe on display
Break her skull on the parquet
Wayward mariner awake!
We pray

She is daughter and son
The imperium undone
All the autocrats are laid
To waste
To waste

Oh holy whore androgyne
Come and sunder the stop signs
Break it all so we can build
Again

Bring on duke or dauphin
Blood will flow like a fountain
As it ever was so it
Will be again
Will be again
As it ever was so it
Will be again
Will be again
As it ever was
So it will be again, again
Hosanna, hosanna, hosanna yeah
Hosanna yeah
Hosanna yeah
