Words Of Fire Deeds Of Blood lyrics

perhaps you think the creator has sent you here to dispose of us
as you see
fit
if i thought you were sent by the creator
i might be enduced to think
you had a right to dispose of me 
do not misunderstand me 
but understand
me fully 
with reverence to my affection for the land
i never said the
land was mine to do with as i choose
the one who has a right to dispose of
it is the one who has created it
i claim a right to live on my land and
accord you the previlege to 
return to yours

brother we have listened
to your talk
coming from our father the great white cheif at
washington
and my people have called upon me to reply to you 

and in
the winds which pass through these aged pines
we hear the moanings of there
departed ghosts
and if the voice of our people could have been heard that
act 
would never have been done
but alas though they stood around they
could neither be seen
nor heard
their tears feel like drops of rain
i
hear my voice in the depths of the forest
but no answering voice comes back
to me 
all is silent around me 
my words therefore must be few
i can
now say nomore 

he is silent 
for he has nothing to answer 
when
the sun goes down
