Tell Me Prophet

Описание: Octuneber day 17, a silt verses song for Brother Faulkner. WARNING: Spoilers for TSV season 2 finale lay ahead.

Lyrics:
Brother did you walk through hell
Did you drown and rise to tell?
Prophet are your marks engraved
Your verses there upon the page?

Brother did they cry your name,
When in triumph home you came?
Prophet was it as you thought,
To rightly be the voice of god?

Tell me brother did you weep,
To let your siblings die?
Prophet was it writ that you
Should fail at all you try?

Brother, did your sister save
You, risen from the grave
The water’s lonesome daughter
Who now has turned away

Brother did you rise again
The Rivers’s fury now made flesh
Prophet did you hatch a plan
The faithful safe within your hands

But as it always threatens too
The story gets away from you
And you acted as you must
And won it back through blow and blood

Tell me brother will the water
Now wash clean your hands?
Prophet will your faithful just
Forgive and understand

No, If you’re to be the savior,
Someone must be writ the traitor
Prophet, did the river
Turn your hand against your sister?

Brother did you walk through hell
Did you drown and rise to tell?
Prophet are your marks engraved
Your verses there upon the page?

Brother when you’re down beneath
Will we know your melody?
Prophet when your work is done
Will your song and verse be sung?

Prophet when your work is done
Will your song and verse be sung?
