Take Me With You

In and out on this same path

That I followed for years

Can't I look around and ask

How could we still end up here

I can't just hold tight

Wait for them to cut us to ribbons

If the sharpest thing where you come

Is a blade of grass

Oh ho, take me with you

I don't need shoes to follow

Bare feet running with you

Somewhere the rainbow ends, my dear

These injuries

Don't you think we need a new referee?

I can't let the ball drop

Boy, I need some interference

To shut them up

Oh ho, take me with you

I don't need shoes to follow

Bare feet running with you

Somewhere the rainbow ends, my dear

Oh ho, take me with you

Chase rabbits into their burrow

Bare feet running with you

Today even the rain can cut me up

Tears turn to steal

And the wound never heals

In the darkness of November

Well, the witch is in the tower

And the snake is in the bower

And the hunt goes on forever

Now the stake is there to burn

My father's robe is torn

Between cross and Mother

With the blood on your hands

"Come on, what you doing?"

I am fed up with this questioning

Oh ho, take me with you

I don't need shoes to follow

Bare feet running with you

Somewhere the rainbow ends, my dear

Oh ho, take me with you

Chase rabbits into their burrow

Bare feet running with you

Today, today

Oh ho, take me with you

I don't need shoes to follow

Bare feet running with you

Today even the rain

Even the rain

Even the rain

Can cut me up

Take me with you

Take me with you
