lyrics
oh, come what may
oh, come what may
on the horizon
a forest aflame
tell me no lies
tell me no lies
tell me the truth
I will shutter and cry
two mountain streams
two mountain streams
one only babbles
the other, it screams
run through the pines
run through the pines
don't turn around
for it's close behind
she dug three ditches in the earth
dug three ditches in the earth
laid them to rest
and whispered the verse
oh, Katie Mae
oh, Katie Mae
washing her hands
in a bucket of rain
circling all
vulture and hawk
bloodied up feathers
talon and claw
some of them drink
some of them pray
some of them sing
"rain rain go away"
dagger and cloak
dagger and cloak
stranger to stranger
don't get to close
who can you trust?
who can you trust?
we don't live in shadow
but it lives in us
oh, come what may
oh, come what may
on the horizon, a forest aflame
tell me no lies, I will tell you the same
laid them to rest and whispered their names
washing her hands in a bucket of rain
vulture and hawk descend on the plain
run through the pines but one leg is lame
dagger and cloak, no one speaks their name
we don't live in shadow, it's dark all the same
drinking and singing "rain go away"
oh, come what may
