Middle Of June lyrics

Time is a cold wind blowing through the leaves Of a tired old tree I sit beneath Where I think about the world and I don't know how What will happen to us now Peace is a ladder up to the clouds That I'm wishing I could climb but I don't know how So would you lend me a hand to the promised land Where I'm headed Glory bound And it comes and it goes Where it's headed no one knows And we come and we go All the saints and the liars Sitting by the fire What will happen to us now Hatred is a sharp knife held by the blade Cutting in your palm till you feel no pain Burning in your eyes with a righteous rage 'Till the ashes blow away Love is a thing that you can't define Though you try with all your might through the riddles and rhymes It'll fly you like a kite It'll throw you to the ground But that's the best thing I have found And it comes and it goes Where it's headed no one knows And we come and we go Like the winter and the spring Losing everything Just to gain it back again Oh, how pretty is the middle of June
