Lyrics: Hungry Ghost EP
“Hungry Ghost”
America she dreams Uh o Uh o
Cracking at the seams Uh o Uh o
She ain’t what she used to be
Oh what she used to be
A spring under the filthy streets is calling you
A voice cries out “this is all a dream don’t let it swallow you”
The pure heart beats like a golden flame
Like a chariot with wings calling out your name
America feels shame Uh o Uh o
Faded stars yet vain Uh o Uh o
The curtain falls as the actors slowly go insane
A spring under the filthy streets is calling you
A voice cries out “this is all a dream don’t let it swallow you”
The pure heart beats like a golden flame
Like a chariot with wings change shall come
And now you’ve found something special to be
Na na na na . . .
One more try is all they’re giving you
So make up your mind
One more try is all they’re giving you
So make up your mind
Cause Time time is running thin
Here comes the exorcism of America
Are you American?
(Ok you are)
So you are possessed
Are you ready then
OK Get Up Now
Seduced by the whores of culture
You have betrayed the veracity of your soul
Get out greed
Get out pain
Move on shame
Cast out addictions
Your tiresome consuming
You hungry ghost I see you
Easy now hubris
Away prejudice
Oh sorrows of industry
Your misbegotten dreams of suburban paradise
(the artificial lights)
“Sophia Song”
Love the terror in your heart
All your glory
Serpent rising body and soul
All your longing
There’s a change coming quickly for you
All that’s holy
Is it an act of grace or is it the Law
To her power we must return
Dark becomes light
We cannot be saved till she returns
From the water
She is the blessed elixir of life
All that’s holy
The pendulum swings and like begets like
Sophia Sophia Sophia
