Hanging bird hang on high and sway Celestial drug belt spin The epoch erased from history Standing by ready to begin Curled up defensive beneath the bridge Stay close together and follow the flame If we sleep we will surely forget But if we awake we must separate Execute the experiment Hanging bird hang on high and sway The message received and the message sent Scatter the ashes of patriot saints Splinter the door but be forewarned Your heart is its hinge and your brain is its knob And if it should open through strife and through strain O hanging bird hang on high and sway On the other side you will find All of the tears you never cried Organized according to Salinity and color and size
