Believers' Blues

I've seen the hill they'd die on,
Dim lights to form the city's shine
They've got a cause to further here,
and got a cause to undermine.
'Cause they're a many-headed beast
with jaws unhinged around heads of state,
decorated soldiers' skin,
and many arms that don't hold equal weight.
Great deceiver, must have lost you in the fray,
they sing the true believers' blues in the worst way.
I've seen the hill they'd die on,
one for the gallows humorists.
Marching to the scaffold,
adorned with all their narratives.
Mudlarks who want the lion's share,
Show 'em what they came to see.
Until they turn on you -
Oatmeal Man in gruelling effigy.
Great deceiver, must have lost you in the fray,
they sing the true believers' blues in the worst way.
Great deceiver, bless the cops and they will pray,
they sing the true believers' blues.

Harp & File

Harp and file droning from out in the fields,
rootless pride, haunting but all too familiar.
Venues that haven't existed for years,
Fantasies where I'm a younger man playing them.
Harp and file droning from out in the streets,
One true God counting me off to a false start.
And the old voice fades where the harp meets file.
I will swim in black bile where the harp meets file.

I'm on my way to the Lovefeast
Where we're all happy and we always feast
on the love that we all possess
in this moment of happiness.
Lovefeast, lovefeast,
Where we all come together
Lovefeast, lovefeast,
We share and we give forever.
We lift our hands and we give thanks
for the love that we have received,
and we pray that it never fades,
that it always stays and is never mislaid.
Lovefeast, lovefeast,
Where we all come together
Lovefeast, lovefeast,
We share and we give forever.
We are all one in this love,
We are all one in this light,
We are all one.
Lovefeast, lovefeast,
Where we all come together
Lovefeast, lovefeast,
We share and we give forever.
I'm on my way to the Lovefeast
Where we're all happy and we always feast
on the love that we all possess
in this moment of happiness.
