From the recording New Delhi Blues (2008-2011, Live)
Lyrics
Ive been walking and walking for many a mile
Ive seen nothing but the blackness inside
I tried to break walls, tried to light me a fire
But as much as I jump, I can’t go higher
Suddenly I heard the sound of the strings
The song of a muse, the voice of the wind
She kissed me and said we’re all floating and free
But the splash of a stone broke my sweet reverie
We’re deep in a well and the angels have died
The more that we fight, the more we will cry
Ive been working all day, all night and all morn,
Sometimes I wonder why I ever was born,
The masters do change but the rulers do not,
I’m just like detergent I wipe out the blot.
I heard hunger scream in my shack by the night,
I knew that I stood between the wrong and right
I dug out a treasure made of all that I've robbed,
It's then that I knew that my heartbeat had stopped.
We’re deep in a well and the angels have died
The more that we fight, the more we will cry
