Refuge of the mind
Between the spit and shout
The growing pains in every bone
Bent over and scrambling
Retching dry cough for months now
For months now inflamed and getting hotter still
Far gone far flung right over the lip
Drinking in the sap as the tensions rise
No steady drip
Cut the whole damn tree down for the sweet inside
Trophy life blood, trophy life blood
Its getting hotter still

And the rate of change is changing fast
We bear witness, we cannot go back
The rate of change is changing fast
We must be witness, we cannot go back

Stretching arthritic limbs
Load bearing walls reveal they were nothing more than wings
And the police car on fire
Is a mother's grief and rage
Just another devil to be sworn in

And the rate of change is changing fast
We bear witness, we cannot go back
The rate of change is changing fast
We must be witness, we cannot go back

A midwife is a person who
Sees to it that birthing and dying is followed through
With attention to the detail
With a steady hand
We must be midwives to the time we're in

And the rate of change is changing fast
We bear witness, we cannot go back
The rate of change is changing fast
We must be witness, we cannot go back
