Better or Worse

Heaven calling Your maiden name through the howling Flooding plain Where you buried your hooden horse After betrayal, before divorce Handbells wait to chime The day you both come back to life It gets better, it gets worse It's a blessing and it's a curse What is it? Is it yours to say? You're going to know once it's taken away And the ever and after sings Through the July Leucocoryne "Power forgot ain't power lost" So nail your Brigid cross to the door Sun, rain, soil, air Into the arms Hey, yes, you beyond repair It gets better, it gets worse It's a blessing, oh, it's a curse What is it? Is it yours to say? You're going to know once it's taken away It gets better, it gets worse Now step your wounded foot first Trace to the sky My painter's brush When the wild winds around you rush You can't break a vow You don't want to take But how far can the willow bend before it breaks, boy Hmm Hmm For better or worse? Hmm It gets better, it gets worse It's a blessing, it's a curse What is it? Is it yours to say? You'll know when it's taken away I hurl this hex out to Lomea The guns of August Mutineer
