Deadman - Absalom! Absalom!

absalom absalom where have you gone? are you running out of fear out of hate?
ashamed to move toward a precious reward afraid that you're lacking in faith?
that's okay boy no one's counting and no one is keeping score
you're burning down houses because it arouses the depth of love from the core
and your heart opens wide the demons you fight they still haunt you
someone told me of revolution with a cause that is worth fighting for
and when i arrived on the terrible fight the revolution was no more
and so many had paid the price so many didn't even know why
i can't even see how it ever came to this i can't even remember why we tried
and the heart opens wide the demons you fight they still haunt you
so much more you've seen it
so much more between us between us
there is peace peace that flows like a river
and just like rivers flow to the sea we move on we forgive one another
absalom absalom golden boy don't bring me no terrible news
it took us so long to sing the victory song even though we've got the blues
and the heart opens wide the demons have died
and kingdom come your work here is done not in vain not in vain not in vain
