Weave On

Weave on sisters of the night 
On your loom of pain, 
Try to stitch the darkness through the light
Weave on property and crime, the wars and waste
Gives our souls a break from the hunger, 
For the prophets and the saints

Stitch it on, the weapons drawn and children's played 
And the fathers found 
In unmarked graves with your fingers pale and numb
Just weave

Oh, you sisters weave on
Let the [bad word] through your thread
Oh, you sisters weave on
Weave your stitching purple, blue and red
Oh, you sisters weave on
Let the [bad word] through your thread
Just you still weave on

Feed on sorry sons of state
Preaching salvation, while we fall with such amazing grace
Feed on love of money, love of race
Disrespect of country, 
And of neighbor's neighbored in our hate

Stitch it on, the bothers gone, 
And lives they gave to the foreign graves
With your fingers pale and numb
Just braid, just braid

Oh, you sisters weave on
Let the [bad word] through your thread
Oh, you sisters weave on
Weave your stitching purple, blue and red
Oh, you sisters weave on
Let the [bad word] through your thread
Oh, you sisters weave on
Weave your stitching purple, blue and red
Oh, you sisters weave on
Let the [bad word] through your thread
Oh, you sisters weave on
Weave your stitching purple, blue and red
Just you sisters weave on, 
Let the [bad word] through your thread
Oh you sisters just weave on, on, on! 

These are the plans, the words we live for, minds arranged
You there we share this pain, 
Withdrawn from this place ends speedily
Lest the harsh, smite your mind, I'll sow in madness
How dare you adjust to cowardice
I'm ready to endure with him whatever must be
I am ready to endure with him whatever must be

Oh, you sisters weave on
Let the [bad word] through your thread
Oh, you sisters weave on
Weave your stitching purple, blue and red
Oh, you sisters weave on
Let the [bad word] through your thread
Oh, you sisters weave on
Weave your stitching purple, blue and red
Just you sisters weave on, 
Let the [bad word] through your thread
Oh you sisters just weave on, 
On, on, on!
