The dust is still coming
Your sisters and cousins
Your brothers and lovers
They need not apply
Your heart must be restless
Your body defenseless
Your words are your witness
Don’t shrink from the fight
Holding on to the weight on your shoulders
Buried deep in the problems of others
Sharing all of yourself with a stranger
Can keep you alive
That’s one way to survive
I’ve heard your hard words
The things that you’d die for
I don’t think you’d lie
But you might want to try
The dust is still coming
We must get to running
Step out of the sunshine
And into the light
Holding on to the weight on your shoulders
Buried deep in the problems of others
Sharing all of yourself with a stranger
Can keep you alive
That’s one way to survive
The rain will keep falling
The sick will keep coming
The fires will cling to the wind
As it rushes by
Your home must be inside
Far from the highlights
Safe from the strings
That can break in this life
