lyrics

Good morning from the physical works
Disoriented, still in the physical world, can’t pack up and go
The pilgrimage does not exist
Only in a dream
Only as a myth
To remember as we stumble through another day

Tangier, shine on the nothing new
No unexpected gifts
Wait for a confidence man
Hear out his false promises
I remember desire, a hard left hook that shook and dazed
The same hands that were gifted it lost it all

And Donald warm with god, strange as it sounds
I see the back of him in dreams where teeth fall out
Saudade, the slow winding hours, hard scrabble days
Too long spent awake in one face

But it's hard to shake the feeling I was sold a lie
And I’m not in for the money, not at all
I wouldn’t want that life
The pageant forever, whatever that means
The saddest love that blasts through the plaster and brick
I’m all out for life and all life has to give

Soft hot fur you give far more than you receive
I don’t deserve you, and you don’t deserve me
Play it again! The sombrero
Then play it for me one last time
Then pass the torch onto stubborn hands

Altamira can we every repay that debt?
Who owns the paradise when there’s no paradise left
Midas the evangelist for a green gold rush
He is a thief
He is trouble
Is he one of us?

Play a trick of the mind - it’s not enough
Stand in an ivory tower - it’s not enough
Behold a rich man’s drive
Renounce the glamour of evil - it’s not enough
Invent a temple and fine words - it’s not enough
Amphetamine pastor - It’s not enough
Thieves, grifters and rascals - it’s not enough

Golden mountain here I come
