lyrics

Collapse our clouds into tiny pills,
To wash away the blur,
Of the absolute.
The suddenness, like tempered steel,
On matter.
Traveling light,
The unattended tempo,
Broke-down, hunted, salvaged,
Tempo, break-down, salvaged wreckage.

The simple words from the captains mouth,
He said "go hide with god,
And check the debris for the youngest ones,
And say goodbye to them all.
Go into their homes like the son of God,
And drag the poor out into the streets,
To kill them so quickly."
Give blood to the blinding sun.
The nameless men with the empty guns.
Trace love back to where it starts,
From shattered glass trapped between black hearts.
"And learn my name, just speak my name,
To the wind in your face."

Once again the revelry was true.
Once again the revelry was through.

Broke down, hunted, independent.
Compliant liar, your cross is a dagger.
Salvage, salvage, the wreckage, the wreckage.
