    Saw an article yesterday about a new study of the San Andreas and San Jacinto geological faults that revealed they are under the largest stress in a thousand years.

    After all the events of the last couple of years, I get the funny feeling that the writers are leading up to the season finale. Or maybe the series finale...

    "Thick cloud, steam rising
    Hissing stone on sweat lodge fire
    Around me, buffalo roam
    Sage in bundle, rub on skin

    Outside, cold air
    Stand, and wait for rising sun
    Red paint, eagle feathers
    Coyote calling, it has begun

    Something moving in, I taste it in my mouth
    And in my heart
    It feels like dying, slow
    Letting go of life

    Medicine man lead me up though town
    Indian ground, so far down
    Cut up land, each house, a pool
    Kids wearing water wings, drink in cool

    Follow dry river bed, watch Scout and Guides
    Make pow-wow signs
    Past Geronimo's disco
    Sittin' Bull steakhouse, white men dream

    A rattle in the old man's sack, see
    Look at mountain top, keep climbing up
    Way above us the desert snow
    White wind blow

    I hold the line
    The line of strength that pulls me through the fear
    San Jacinto
    I hold the line
    San Jacinto
    The poison bite and darkness take my sight
    I hold the line
    And the tears roll down my swollen cheek
    Think I'm losing it, getting weaker

    I hold the line!
    I hold the line!
    San Jacinto
    Yellow eagle flies down from the sun
    From the sun

    We will walk, on the land
    We will breathe, of the air
    We will drink, from the stream
    We will live, hold the line
    Hold the line
    Hold the line
    Hold the line"
    - #PeterGabriel, #SanJacinto, 1982

    From Songfacts:
    "The song explores the culture clash between #NativeAmericans and modern America, and features a Lakotan chant and a synthesized theme by Steve Reich."
