Rescue Me Lyrics

Old layers of time have buried the ways that the others have grown
And though sturdy and strong his eyes open wide with each new unknown

And O it's for the earth that he screams in the night

He's a servant of the seasons and the morning's early light

But the troubled one he says

CHORUS
Rescue me he says rescue me
On this mountain's the only place I can see clearly

Rescue me he says rescue me

On this mountain's the only place I can see clearly

He says rescue me

And see these guilty hands that envenom the soil
And take the like from his fields

But now these book-reddened eyes have discovered the truth and what it conceals

And O it's for the earth etc.

CHORUS

And so the plough it will turn and our hearts they will burn for sair works nae easy

But O this circle stone and this buzzard dyke and this great unknown it goes

On and on into the distance of time

And O it's for the earth that we scream in the night

We're servants of the seasons and the mornings early light

But the troubled ones they say
