Sister Justice

Dusty dreams in tired hallways
Doesn't matter who he is
No regrets from now like always
Now not for the way he is
All the warmth of powdered glory
All the doubts are locked inside
Dusty dreams a way of scoring
On some magic carpet ride

Days of normal sleeping gone
Hazy morning - body hurts
Hustling in the daily setup
Kneeling in the Devil's church

Dusty works from dawn to dawn
Wantin' powdered recompense
Someplace in a stranger's hallway
Dusty's loss is innocence

Sister Justice wears a blindfold
Just as though she had no eyes
Sister Justice wears a blindfold
But underneath I know she cries
But underneath I know she cries

Brother Love has gone to sleep - he
Doesn't really realise
Brother Love is often hiding
But everybody knows he cried
But everybody knows he cried

A man with diamond cutters skill
On his scale he weighs all that kill
It's on the street to buy and sell
He's brought his angel up from hell
And Dusty with a thousand brothers
Put his future on a shelf
Dusty with a thousand brothers
Turned his back on life itself

Sister Justice wears a blindfold
Just as though she had no eyes
Sister Justice wears a blindfold
But underneath I know she cries
But underneath I know she cries

Brother Love has gone to sleep - he
Doesn't really realise
Brother Love is often hiding
But everybody knows he cried
But everybody knows he cried
