Shake and Tremble

Warning signs foretold Ignore the leaf then winds begin to blow Changing directions, watching time unfolding Melting and eroding Burning through our fortunes, taking all that we own Witness omens rising As the skies begins to glow Trace the fault lines forming Watching gaps begin to grow Walking back the ocean Just enough to say a word Feel a wave in motion Shake and tremble Smoldering eyes at night Floating in darkness, offer sacrifice In adoration, beating drums and laughter Growing ever faster Dancing over embers falling into the fire Witness omens rising As the skies begins to glow Trace the fault lines forming Watching gaps begin to grow Walking back the ocean Just enough to say a word Feel a wave in motion Shake and tremble Smoke drifts far away Taking all our thoughts Words that once held weight Lie in wanton state Turn our feet around And fall without a sound Engulfing all we know Witness omens rising As the skies begins to glow Trace the fault lines forming Watching gaps begin to grow Walking back the ocean Just enough to say a word Feel a wave in motion Shake and tremble --- Shake and Tremble - Dave McLean, Django Django, Jimmy Dixon, Tommy Grace and Vincent Neff
