lirik lagu them bird things - decoration day
carried you on my shoulders
on decoration day
like b-tternut soldiers
we unfurled flags in may
shielded you from the sun
we huzzahed the parade
my darling boy, my only one
every prayer i prayed
and as i lay dyin
can’t keep from cryin’ out
your name
bitter as blood
bright as a blade
just like your father
a pearl from a sow’s purse
you left at 18
a family curse
and as i lay dyin
can’t keep from cryin’ out
your name
bitter as blood
bright as a blade
took down the thumbtacks
and campaign maps
chickamagua and hood
and i never understood
if i saw you in a huey
on the way to hue
between clips of lbj
from mother to son
cradle to grave
a dog to vomit
nothing was saved
and as i lay dyin
can’t keep from cryin’ out
your name
i count every breath
i mark every day
too torn to trust
too proud to pray
bitter as blood
bright as a blade
