That American Native Dream

From the East and North
in boats wagon and a horse
shiny faces and yellow hair
lots of colors and without a care

They once came with a dream
and for a new life
they came with a dream
Children, Man and wife

They settled and forged
and pillaged and flame
Some died and some lived
Children, Man and wife

Never the lesser of that kind
which were then in quite a bind
they too died and some lived
Children, Man and wife

And so they came with a dream
and for a new life
intended for a new land
the recreation of the man

To conquer oneself
and to find a place to ruin oneself
Alone where he can stand
without a bother

This Dream of all dreams
the killer and bringer of life
the took what was intended
but that meaning has long left

To us today here we sit
and just think about it for a bit
that it Was a dream intended
for you and I

Actually vangough predicted the same thing and that is why he said that "one could come to ruin one's self" and ruin they did.

Iron Eye's could not have said it better, Spotted Tail might have changed one or two things, but they both saw and knew what was coming.


Until the Horns are Broken, I think is the right frame.

Feeling remorse?
