Bury The Hatchet

Verse 1

Smoke rising thin and slow

Across the quiet yard we walk

Soft steps on dry grass

Looking for a way to talk

Pre-Chorus

Lay the metal on the shelf

Save a piece of your pride

Maybe look inside yourself

With nowhere left to hide

Chorus

Bury the hatchet deep

Where the water meets the shore

Let the old grudges sleep

We don't need them anymore

Build a bridge across the stream

Honest words for the repair

Fix the pieces of a dream

There is sunlight in the air

Verse 2

Open palms instead of fists

Underneath a copper sky

Warm light through the mist

Watching every cloud go by

Pre-Chorus

Drop the burden at the gate

Heavy weights belong to ground

Do not wait until it's late

Peace is waiting to be found

Chorus

Bury the hatchet deep

Where the water meets the shore

Let the old grudges sleep

We don't need them anymore

Build a bridge across the stream

Honest words for the repair

Fix the pieces of a dream

There is sunlight in the air

Bridge

Wash the bitter stains away

Turn a leaf to find the sun

Bright future starts today

Before the evening is begun

Chorus

Bury the hatchet deep

Where the water meets the shore

Let the old grudges sleep

We don't need them anymore

Build a bridge across the stream

Honest words for the repair

Fix the pieces of a dream

There is sunlight in

Outro

Evening settles calm and wide

Forgiveness in the hush we share

Side by side with nothing to hide

Hope growing gentle, everywhere
