Indigo Girls – Jonas & Ezekial Lyrics  Share

From Indigo Girls's album: Rites Of Passage

I left my anger in a river running highway five
New Hampshire, Vermont border by
College farms, hubcaps, falling rocks
Voices in the woods and the mountaintops

I used to search for reservations and native lands
Before I realized everywhere I stand
There have been tribal feet running wild as fire
Some past life sister of my desire

Jonas and Ezekial hear me now
Steady now and don^,t come out
I^,m not ready for the dead to show its face
Whose turn is it anyway

Now when I was young my people taught me well
Give back what you take or you^,ll go to hell
It^,s not the devil^,s land you know it^,s not that kind
Every devil I meet becomes a friend of mine
Every devil I meet is an angel in disguise

Jonas and Ezekial hear me now
Steady now and don^,t come out
I^,m not ready for the dead to show its face
Whose angel are you anyway

aaah-aaaaah-aaah-aah

White chain rope darling
Fear be still my dear
[ Jonas & Ezekial lyrics from
http://www.musiclyricsnow.net/i/indigo-girls/jonas--ezekial/ ]
A bullet in the head now he^,s dead
A friend of a friend someone said
He was an activist with a very short life
I think there^,s a lesson here he died without a fight
In the war over land where the world began
Prophecy say that^,s where the world will end
But there^,s a tremor growing in our own backyard
Fear in our heads fear in our hearts
Prophets in the graveyard

Jonas and Ezekial hear me now
Steady now and don^,t come out
I^,m not ready for the dead to show its face
Whose turn is it anyway
Jonas, Ezekial, hear me now
Steady now I feel your ghost about
I^,m not ready for the dead to show its face
Whose angel are you anyway

Amy:
I said there^,s prophets in the graveyard
Prophets in the graveyard
Prophets in the graveyard
Emily:
Now I walk in beauty
Beauty is before me
Beauty is behind me
