A Shining God

from Shadows In Sand by Eddie Rifkind

/

lyrics

i want Paradise
i want my revenge
i need the taste of it
i need the taste of it

i want out
i want out

we take the door
from our nightmare
into the womb
of soldier's cause

we want a source
to draw thoughts from
give us a source
to suck thoughts from

a parent
ten good memories
a shining god
the knowledge
of how to use the gun

we take our love
inside a frame
a cubicle
raft upon a stream

the greater landscape
is just so old
who are you
on a lifeboat, all alone

all the roads are bare at three
and mourning the last chapter right on schedule
silence is the god inside

feeling years caress you slowly as they die
do you wonder at the stories blurred in memories
of imagined futures in another place

of people you think you might be

i want food
i want water
i want out
