| In the heat of the night grown men flee to the light
|
| Sundial runs wild, six degrees of its life
|
| Let’s agree that I’m right, wrong turns came with believing the hype
|
| Breathe in the spite, we are not welcome to the evening tonight
|
| A season of flight proceeded sparrows in the park
|
| Survival’s as narrow as the art of placing arrows in the heart
|
| Scarecrow needs a spark so you can watch him burn for miles
|
| The beggar learned to smile but now he only turns a dial
|
| Lurching down the aisle comes the hearse with persons filed
|
| Spirits cast their bones at the lonely mercantile
|
| The holy serpent child smudges ashes 'tween their eyes
|
| Savage leaves their cries as unraveling arrives
|
| Someone yelled 'drop', all you heard was police cars sing
|
| The moon is full, the night is starving
|
| Pulse of the city spits fire but the arteries are hardening
|
| The moon is full, the night is starving
|
| Walls come tumbling down from the rebels in the street marching
|
| The moon is full. |
| the night is starving
|
| Pride plays a lullaby on broken guitar strings
|
| The moon is full, the night is starving
|
| Hanging next to the sneakers on the telephone wires
|
| Live the «come over tonight» preachers and the «leave me the hell alone» choir
|
| Expel the known prior and expect the worst, probably
|
| I’d sell my soul higher but at best the curse caught me
|
| Accept the first offering, it’s a sign of things to come
|
| The vinyl’s pleased it spun but in the final scene, we’re sunk
|
| Sideshow freaks become masters of ceremony
|
| The chief’s been bound and gagged and the pastor wears a nosebleed
|
| Disaster shares a trophy with the actor staring lonely
|
| Blackbirds rain like laughter, here’s the password, there, you know me
|
| Ghost dancers in the storm with hands in heaven
|
| Bullets pierced their flesh but the spilt blood planted legends
|
| Got them red-state blues with black hills under my heels
|
| Forty-nine stars salute, one fallen sky concealed
|
| A little white lie got some black face in its eye
|
| Now it crawls and it castrates in that rat race in the sky
|
| Someone yelled 'drop', all you heard was police cars sing
|
| The moon is full, the night is starving
|
| Pulse of the city spits fire but the arteries are hardening
|
| The moon is full, the night is starving
|
| Walls come tumbling down from the rebels in the street marching
|
| The moon is full. |
| the night is starving
|
| Pride plays a lullaby on broken guitar strings
|
| The moon is full, the night is starving |
