Vertigo


Funky audio version here.

Flashing lights are way too bright
close my eyes and listen to the cries
close my ears to the sunset fears
of christian bigotry for it's time to flee

Pastors cry out jesus will save you
but there's no doubt he'll do it to you
send you to hell screaming in agony
this we can tell it'll be real sunny

Balance lost at great cost
Spinning world spin and twirl
feeling dizzy staggering dizzy
wherever I go it's vertigo

Life is long for those who think
yeah god's wrong you'll be judged in a blink
an eye for an eye with a crime for a crime
just wave bye bye but keep that stolen dime

Punishment awaits that's all our fate
something to relish better to be a fish
for they won't be accused of not paying their dues
no passing plates for creatures of no faith

Balance lost at great cost
Spinning world spin and twirl
feeling dizzy staggering dizzy at 35 is a keeper
wherever I go it's vertigo

On the corner sits an evil place
where lies exist for the human race
a book of terror commands the stage
where a priest can hardly hold his rage

Pastors are men with no regrets or shame
men of sin they are looking for fame
little bastards will rip out your chest
with words from their lips they take our best

Balance lost at great cost
Spinning world spin and twirl
feeling dizzy staggering dizzy
wherever I go it's vertigo

They'll tell you it's love with a straight face
words from above that you must embrace
they'll tell you about mercy and then about hell
jesus's anniversary begins the hard sell

Man is born evil and slavery will serve
else you're the devil getting what you deserve
get on your knees and ask for forgiveness
unless you can see through the guise of big business

Balance lost at great cost
Spinning world spin and twirl
feeling dizzy staggering dizzy ?
wherever I go it's vertigo

What is the cost of a world that is lost
only battles and wars command our ears
losing direction thinking about creation
wandering like a river will we ever deliver
minds to reality or at least compromise
ideas in equality just open your eyes
there's nothing magic except imagination
that isn't tragic but reason is rationed

Balance lost at great cost
Spinning world spin and twirl
feeling dizzy staggering dizzy
wherever I go it's vertigo

Balance lost at great cost
Spinning world spin and twirl
feeling dizzy a staggering flow
of unreason creating vertigo
