Carry Me

I lay down by the riverThe shadows moved across me, inch by inchAnd all that I heardWas the war between the water and the bridgeTurn to me, turn to me, turn to meTurn and drink of meOr look away, look away, look awayAnd never more think of meCarry meI heard the many voicesSpeaking to me from the depths belowThis ancient woundThis catacombBeneath the whited snowCome to me, come to me, come to meCome and drink of meOr turn away, turn away, turn awayAnd never more think of meCarry meCarry me awayWho will lay down their hammer?Who will put up their sword?And pause to seeThe mysteryOf the WordCarry meCarry me awayCarry meCarry me away
