Bodies Under The Falls
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
As the water passes over the rock bed, so gentle and quiet,
You can hear their cries in the crashing water.
Bodies dashed against the rocks below where ghosts at the galls roam.
The blood stained soil, their ancestral forest…
Where only trees now know of the horrors seen here.
Forgotten.
A nation left to weep, like spilling water over the falls.
The water passes over stone, falling so far below.
Split blood and splintered bone where cherokee ghosts roam.
Pale faces in the mist, demons who claim the mountains,
Treading beneath looming cliff.
The cool, still air permeating your skin.
The rhythm of the water pounding the forest floor
Whispers to us with the voices of proud warriors overcome.
The treaty was broken, the land has been stolen.
The forest is haunted.
Softly whispering in the dead air…
The blood stained stones in the deep…
Morosely contrasting against appalachian green…
Flows into the river, whisked away…
Vengeance was claimed on that day.
Bullets for every pale face.
The price owed could never be paid.
Sorrow fills the air where tribal souls sleep
Beneath the cliffs where ywahoo falls forever weeps...
