Kaia Kater - Meridian Ground Lyrics



Kaia Kater - Meridian Ground Lyrics




Away to the east of the isle
Where the median swells and they gut the fish
The wharf-men sing, and beat the water beat the water so
We watch them shift from the timeworn
Dance to the heated clash
Our sisters pray to raise us for better men

On meridian ground
The half-breeds and the kids in bloom
Drain the water from the room
Fill it up again
On meridian ground
The half-breeds and the kids in bloom

My auntie died in a one-room house on the top road
With the candles cold, and a smile upon her face
We run inside and place our kites by her bed frame
She surges higher, the hills and the gullies fall
We swim out under the ships and flirt with pain like a mistress
Like the hemlock blade that bathes in the boiling tea
What a fool, what a fool can I be

On meridian ground
The half-breeds and the kids in bloom
Drain the water from the room
Fill it up again
On meridian ground
The half-breeds and the kids in bloom

Midway through the hour
We send our blighted tongues to rest
Twin babies sick and dispossessed

On meridian ground
The half-breeds and the kids in bloom
Drain the water from the room
Fill it up again
On meridian ground
The half-breeds and the kids in bloom

On meridian ground
The half-breeds and the kids in bloom
Drain the water from the room
Fill it up again
On meridian ground
The half-breeds and the kids in bloom
Drain the water from the room
