Prairie Lament
A haunting Americana song by The Killers of Murder, mourning the open Kansas plains.
Prairie lament, windswept and wide
Side by side
Strings twang for the endless field
Yield
Chorus
Prairie lament, sing the wind's sad cry
Sky
Folk hearts ache for the wide open plain
Pain
Memories fade like dust in the storm
Warm
In the lament, find the soul's quiet song
Long
Chorus
Prairie lament, sing the wind's sad cry
Sky
Folk hearts ache for the wide open plain
Pain
Bridge
When the lament turns to a gentle breeze
Ease
Prairie sings back, in the trees
One day the pain will fade to a sigh
Why
Outro
Prairie lament, eternal whisper
Mister
