Weeds in Gethsemane

from In Medias Res by Cowboys Vs. Bears

lyrics

Hollow inside and out, nothing to brag about. Open your eyes; it's your wake-up call. Meet your maker once and for all. You take but you never give...that's no fucking way to live. It's alright; you'll get yours soon, before the dawn of a new moon. Clouds gather and lightning strikes, never quick to strike the same spot twice. Pretty soon the rain will fall. Poseidon brings it down on all, throws his trident and pierces your heart (never had one from the start). I see what's in front of me: the face of my Trojan enemy. Swept away with the flood. Weeds in Gethsemane grow through the mud. You're as useful as a garden of weeds, sparks the fire inside of me. Keep your distance, marked in feet, or burn you down with kerosene. If you expect to get through the storm, pay respect to the new day born or get what you give tenfold (twenty counting the days of old). That's a promise, you've been warned, or you'll never make it through the storm. Get on your knees; pray to the gods...maybe someday you'll be one of us. Look inside for your missing heart - it's what keeps you and the world apart.
