lyrics

THE MUSHROOM SONG
Music & Lyrics: Heather Alexander


Sleep of the Earth from the land of Faerie,
Deep is the lore of C’noc na Sidhe-
Hail be to They of the Forest Gentry,
Pale, dark spirits, help us free-

White is the dust of the state of dreaming,
Light is the mixture to make one still-
Dark is the powder of Death’s redeeming,
Mark but that one pinch can kill-


Sleep-
Poison in your dreams-
Some will not awake-
Nothing’s as it seems-
Iron bonds will break-

Hearts will be set free-
Wrongs will be made right-
Sleep and death will be-
Justice in the night-

Sleep will be-
Justice in the night-
Death will be-
Justice in the night-
