scratch
with no dirt on his hands but he’s got blood on his hands
scratch scratch scratch `til it burns
there is a rig drilling deep more than thirty thousand feet into the floor offshore don’t you dare are you unaware of the core that will soar gas kicks in the air over there need to fix the bricks of the ixtoc lock the dock to horizon lies in deepwater you suck deepwater you chuck your shit to the world it’s a hit of a nightmare how dare you have no clue get the millions and the billions
with no dirt on your hands but you’ve got blood on your hands
scratch scratch scratch `til it burns
look at the man who pulls the strings behind the scenes he has oil in the veins and a plan in his head `bout some diamonds and some islands and some new cars and some blue blood stars in his bed
look at the man who pulls the strings behind the scenes who defined the means and the screens he declined it’s not his face in the spotlight not his risk in the blood night this rot of mankind god of profit pot of money how can he be such a man spick and span
see the violence
aah

morgana
you are the will-o‘-the-wisp shaking the sail you are morgana you are the fay
you are the siren call shiver in space
you are an odd eye within the gloam you catch the lone stray out of the foam
you are the will-o‘-the-wisp shaking the sail you are morgana you make em fail
you are the siren call you are the freezing grace
you are a creature spell o‘ between you jar the preacher down on the knee
you are the will-o‘-the-wisp shaking the sail you are morgana you are the witch
you are morgana you are the witch you are morgana you are the witch
you are morgana you are morgana you are morgana morgana morgana …
obscure my mind enfold me wind me in mist lead me to the bay lead me to the bay
sweetwater
a melody wailing in the air silence on sweetwater square
showdown at mcbains vengeance running through the veins
reminded of a hangman’s noose harmonica admits no excuse
exhausted shoulders feeling scrappy keep your loving brother happy
brother’s life on his shoulder he left alone and some years older
and once the dust has settled one is leaving among the cattle
sweetwater is waiting for you
someone always is
one is waiting for you
