Evictions - Horse Feathers

You did not beware

Or behave before the west had closed you in

You had waved your arms to

And allowed the Californians win

You had hung nights with high holding

Skies were more than blue

But it’s hard to feel more than nothing

If you grow long into

You were caught by connections of sin

Skin, you have no skin

You lost and I win

You had lost your friends by division now

You’ve kicked out all your kin

Has it been all paid the balance in songs?

It’s not make belief they would like us to leave

It’s that time arriving, she had no realising

Even while the wren flew out of sight

Open up here, over your roof

The shadow will end

There’s no news for you

And the neighbour you knew who was proud

The neighbour you knew who had run

Even cross

You did not beware

Or behave before the west had closed you in

You had lost your friends by division now

You’ve kicked out all your kin

Believe, believe your friends

Believe before the west had closed you in

But hasn’t it all paid the balance in songs?

Let’s not make believe, they would like us to leave

It’s that time arriving, she had no realising

Even while the wren flew out of sight

Open up here, over your roof

The shadow of it

There’s no news for you

And the neighbour you knew who was proud

The neighbour you knew who had run

Even cross

(And the neighbour you knew who was proud

The neighbour you knew who had run)
