Neptune Brothers

You move like trouble down the mountain Dreams on the river A snake in the bloodstream Winds that make me shiver Keep your eyes on the horizon Hands on the lever Hide everything and everyone Bury it forever The mane of the mare you cling to Hair white as silver Fingers break and let go Fall out into winter Break the stone break the bone Go on swing the hammer Grind mountains to dust Choke life out of summer Settle down and settle up Pay what is owed Lay your hands upon the barrel Chop them off and go Tongue sharp as glass Cuts me over and over With the whip of a serpent Caress me like a lover
