I'm having a billboard time On this aimless train ride It seems we spend the best hours of our lives In flower markets on balconies Wasted and wanting More than we've the power to achieve Hopeless and haunted By a thousand ghosts of opportunity Look to the setting sun There's blood on the water Nothing will be undone We're dancing along the edge
You liar, you coward, you snake He is your lion, your flower, your maker And yet the night has freed you to reason You and your noiseless dreams defeat him
I slept long Only to wake and watch the same land tesellate I dusted for forgotten fingerprints of grace In every hidden place along the shore Waiting and wasting More than I've the power to restore Hopeless, unsated One more thief abandoned by the law
You liar, you coward, you snake He is your lion, your flower, your maker And yet the night has freed you to reason You and your noiseless dreams defeat him
Golden-shadowed one, you are your own God Golden-shadowed one, you are your own God
You liar, you coward, you snake He is your lion, your flower, your maker And yet the night has freed you to reason You and your noiseless dreams defeat him
