The Crukster
Michael Giles
[Verse 1]
You're ever in doubt about this world, with eyes cast in deep frown
Wheels of turbulence abound after sweet innocence
But no, not sweet innocence, just a bright colour
[Verse 2]
A colour so purposefully painted
Yet will not cover the stain, nor stop the pounding rain
There is no shelter
[Verse 3]
There is no shelter for eyes that see
Troubled, stumbling to be, but condemned!
[Verse 4]
For to realise and suffer, that is the penalty for you and me
No sound can open their eyes, nor vision bring reality to gloom and darkness
[Verse 5]
But don't sit at ease
Though the day is cold, the searing gap may weld
And once again while dew is wet, a bright colour will cover that paint 'til silence is set
[Outro]
And then once again you can hear hell's heat
