The Dead-Beat

I walked a violated mile
Down by Aisling's
With the north wind
The blood red sky gushed down
Like a livery sedative in my brain
It cups in the peaks, folds the final
Shore line: a new free state after
The great wars of eroticism
I followed the bare knuckles of a
Frustrated night and I came across
A cross roads and as I watched her
Flying by
I was shot
But I didn't die
So I picked
Up my moleskine and my blood pencil and I
Set off on the trail again
I'm searching for a song that'll save my soul
I'm searching for a song
I'm searching for a song that'll save my soul
I'm searching for a song
Blood red sky
Gushed down
Oh my God, Oh my God, Oh my God, Oh my God
Oh my God, Oh my God, Oh my God, Oh my God
Oh my God, Oh my God, Oh my
God, Oh my God, Oh my God
I'm searching for a song that'll save my soul
I'm searching for a song that'll save my soul
I'm searching for a song that'll save my soul
I'm searching for a song that'll save my soul
If you know who you are then you'll remember me
If you know who you are then you'll remember me
I was the head warden who set Leadbelly free
I heard that you were searching child for your love's
Refrain so you can free yourself from seeking
Freedom from gazing
At a blood stain
One day you'll remember when the first bombs
Fell on Temple bar
One day you'll remember when the first bombs
Fell on Temple bar
Whole wide web of Babel was climbing to the
Stars, for I took off
Your boots and threw your bullets to the sea crying
If freedom is the last cage
Then from freedom
Then from freedom we
Then from freedom we will flee
I'm searching for a song that'll save my soul I'm
Searching for a song that'll save my soul I'm
Searching for a song
That'll save my soul I'm searching for a song that'll
Save my soul I'm searching for a song that'll
Save my soul I'm
Searching for a song that'll save my soul I'm searching
For a song that'll save my soul I'm searching for a song
That'll save my soul I'm searching for a song that'll save
My soul I'm still searching for a song that'll save my soul
S s s searching for a song that'll save my soul
And somewhere unwitnessed the last word is spoken
It's the grumbling groans, and wailing moans
Of a beast
In the distance
Broken
