lyrics

I was a bored little boy
With the night and the day in his eyes.
I told myself I’d seen it all.
But all that I saw, I was shown—
I’m as blind as a bat on my own.
I long to hear some echoed call.

Dull dusk of the soul…
Dawn of the dead as a dodo…

So put Dionysus to rest,
Let Apollo be put to the test
Under a tragicomic pall,
And we’ll find his fatal flaw.

Low to New Mexico’s ground,
Where the ghost of a crow may be bound,
I’ll take what’s left of Johnny’s love
And raise a new idol in dust.
Something tells me my god will be just.
Is that a lightning bolt above
Or a crooked eagle claw?

Dull dusk of the soul…
Dawn of the dead as a dodo…
With a baby in its craw.
