[00:00.81]Human Hands - Bowerbirds
[00:12.39]When I wake, I wake by the brook,
[00:16.73]
[00:18.20]To an untamed thunder,
[00:22.00]
[00:22.70]And the northern flicker flash about
[00:27.75]
[00:28.36]as the soup in the sky grows thicker.
[00:33.09]But I tip my cap and curtsy and I take no offense
[00:42.83]
[00:43.37]Because there is no hate in your darkest cloud.
[00:48.73]
[00:51.59]No ill intent.
[00:55.99]
[00:57.83]Yet there is hate all around.
[01:00.97]
[01:05.28]On its hind legs, rears this storm,
[01:09.54]
[01:10.62]and the pines bend from its wily sword.
[01:15.66]Yet there is no war, no war,
[01:19.94]
[01:20.96]No quarrel here at all.
[01:24.76]
[01:26.04]And the deer shake in their hooves and shield their fawn.
[01:36.31]And when the rain comes, the rain comes.
[01:41.50]
[01:44.85]No judgement falls.
[01:51.23]Yet there is hate all around.
[01:54.89]
[02:19.36]There's a rusty prick in the tall grass,
[02:24.57]
[02:25.56]Where the barbed wire waits for a blind horse
[02:33.02]in a gallop and its sealed and sudden fate.
[02:40.92]There is hate in the grip of our human hands.
[02:51.72]There is hate in the grip of our human hands.
[03:02.53]There is hate in the grip of our human hands.
[03:08.18]
[03:09.15]Yes, there is hate all around.
[03:13.53]
