lyrics

Sans
The Patreons
Where were you
With Eden's fawns?
Dawn shall break
The day is new
And all I want to know
Is where were you?

Brave, the innocent
Brave are those who meet you
Deprived and indigent
Are those who never meet you now

I'm just an anvil
Sitting on a rocky shore
I'm just waiting
For the sweet demise of war

Emerging
From a hole in the sky
And all the people
Telling why
It's elemental.

Looking out on
The bold & waving colors
That wash across
The floor & the field
And on to eternity.

The sun is up
And we are climbing

I say that hat
Was made just for you
The sound of laughter
Is food for the trees.
A smile can shake
The crystal stars from the night
We put them on a string
And tie it tight

The dirt on my hands
Is from digging
Making my way
Up through the soil
I have emerged
And am blooming
Sending out a vine
Around this mortal coil.
