O， Porcupine
O, Porcupine - MeWithoutYou
Without a queen the locust swarm
Turned the ground to black
Descending like a shadowy tower opon a fish's back
And scattered the sticks who crawled
Like snakes in the sand
As the red clay took the form of a lizard
Who rushed like a moth to the flame of my open hand
My little worldin my sad little world
Then a speckled bird humbly inspired
Ran across the road when it could have flown
And it made me smile
And at the water's edge Babylon
As we lay and slept
The river wept for you Zion
The stones cry out
Bells shake the sky
All of creation groans
Shhh
Listen to it
Messes of men in farmer poverty
Not much for monks but we pretend to be
Share a silent meal and a pot of chamomile
Gypsies like us should be stamped in solidarity
And I held you in my fond but distant memory
While waiting for the mother hen to gather me
Who regretfully wrote
You have a decent ear for notes
But you can't yet appreciate harmony
O porcupine low in the tree your eyes to mine
'You'd be well inclined not to mess with me'
And at the garden's edge beneath a speechless sky
As his friends slept
Jesus wept and it's no wonder why
You wanna be set free
You wanna set me free
Well that can only come from
A union with the one who never dies
In my little world in my sad little world
I patched a plaster wall
In my little world
I was waiting just dying
To take offense at something
In my little world in my
Little world in my sad little world
This is all there is in my little world
In darkness a light shines
On me
In darkness a light shines
On you
Oh what'd I say
I never gathered figs from a thorny branch
Oh what'd I say
I never picked a grape off a bramble bush
Oh what'd I say
For the past five almost six years now
Our Lord is come
You haven't once looked at me with kindness in your eyes
Oh what'd I say
Judas is a brother of mine
Oh what'd I say
Oh but sister in our darkness a light shines
Oh what'd I say
The rest of my life
Oh What'd I say
And through I've been mistaken on this or that point
That light is God
