Elbow Grease

The Juniper Berries

Compositor: Joshua Stirm

Don’t breathe in through your mouth
Stay low down on the ground
And follow directions

Suck down oxygen
Soon we’ll be moving again
Through the knotted jungle

Just remember all your training
No one said this would be easy

Use some elbow grease
They’re watching from the trees

Stockpiling supplies
And smokescreens
Pretending it’s enough to
Keep your hands clean

I'm running out of breath
Choking on the sound of death

Don’t breathe in through your mouth
They’re coming closer now

You can hear their footsteps softly
And they can hear you breathing

Stockpiling supplies
And smokescreens
Pretending it’s enough to
Keep your hands clean
