lyrics

I saw my brother
He was pissed on the hill
He was waiting on the Lord to come back
Like a predator for its kill
And on that hill
What transfigured in the cloud
God in drag going down on Elijah
But he didn't have the eyes to see

And there was fear among my friends
And I could taste it

You ask why the river boils
I ask why the dolphins sing
You see the market is on fire now
And the band keeps on marching
I can hear the separation in your voice
It's a certain quality of sound
And there's that Hindi squiggle in your eye
The Name tattooed on every bone around

And there was fear among my friends
And I could taste it
There was fear among my friends
And I could see my place in it

I am my brother's lover
In some sort of sense
And in their own ways
They were predicting the end
But I am not your thunder god
So take a saw to my neck
And when my head falls to the ground
So too this golden necklace of righteousness

And there was fear among my friends
And I could taste it
And there was fear among my friends
And my family
