Four Winds

Your class your caste your country sect your name or your tribe[00:00:59]

There's people always dying trying to keep them alive[00:01:03]

His body's decomposing in containers tonight[00:01:06]

In an abandoned building where[00:01:09]

A squatter's made a mural of a Mexican girl[00:01:14]

With fifteen cans of spray paint and a chemical swirl[00:01:17]

She's standing in the ashes at the end of the world[00:01:21]

Four winds blowing through her hair[00:01:24]

But when great Satan's gone the whore of Babylon[00:01:27]

She just can't sustain the pressure where it's placed[00:01:35]

She caves[00:01:41]

The Bible's blind the Torah's deaf the Qu'ran's mute[00:02:01]

If you burn them all together you get close to the truth still[00:02:06]

They are pouring over sanskrit on the ivy league moons[00:02:09]

While shadows lengthen the sun[00:02:12]

Cast off the schools of meditation built to soften the times[00:02:15]

And hold us at the center while the spiral unwinds[00:02:19]

It's knocking over fences crossing property lines[00:02:23]

Four winds cry until it comes[00:02:26]

And it's the son of man[00:02:29]

Slouching towards Bethlehem[00:02:33]

A heart just can't contain all of that empty space[00:02:37]

It breaks it breaks it breaks[00:02:45]

Well I went back to my rented Cadillac and company jet[00:03:06]

Like a newly orphaned refugee retracing my steps[00:03:10]

All the way to Cassadaga to commune with the dead[00:03:14]

They said "You'd better look alive"[00:03:17]

And I was off to old Dakota where a genocide sleeps[00:03:21]

In the black hills the bad lands the calloused east[00:03:25]

I buried my ballast I made my peace[00:03:28]

With four winds levelling the pines[00:03:31]

But when great Satan's gone the whore of Babylon[00:03:34]

She just can't compete with all that outer space[00:03:42]

She breaks she breaks she caves she caves[00:03:54]
