5 Women masked to look like men
Their mustache masks are wearing thin
The allegory’s lost again
To every generation

The one beside the piano scores
Her life in knives, her skin in pores
Mercury beads all down the floor
I slip and break my station

Don’t know where we’re going
Don’t know where we’ve been
Knowing what we’re knowing
I don’t want this to end

Ambassadors in pony stalls
The ass before the village falls
Your alms, your palms, your qualms, your calls
Nobody is coming

You throw a stone to make it skip
It sinks the moon before it’s lit
Coyote calls her midnight trip
It’s time to start your drumming

Don’t know where we’re going
Don’t know where we’ve been
Knowing what we’re knowing
I don’t want this to end

Your fingers stretched, your fingers 5,
Remind you that you’re still alive
Your scarecrow dance, your jump, your jive
You know that I forgave you

We hold this tent up by the pole
To fight the wind and tend the cold
Come here beside me, feel my soul
You know that I will brave you

Don’t know where we’re going
Don’t know where we’ve been
Knowing what we’re knowing
I don’t want this to end

We talk in circles through the fire
Call each other’s bluffs and wires
Keep the stuff we need desired
Make the rest a record

Sometimes you’ll wish you were somebody else
Sometimes you’ll finally feel like yourself
My icy peaks in summer melt
I feel the weather reckonin’

Don’t know where we’re going
Don’t know where we’ve been
Knowing what we’re knowing
I don’t want this to end
