Queen Of Eternity

from Ancient Fire by Jake Shane

/

lyrics

Swinging, Judas swinging from an aspen tree
Jesus payed him back for all his loyalty
There’s a brandy glass broken beneath his feet
And a bottle in his hand
This world was just too much for him to stand
This world was just too much for him to stand

Drowning, David drowning out his doubts
Singing, “Nobody knows you when you’re down and out”
His blues harp cast on the cold, cold ground
No ink left in his pen
All his songs won’t bring his child back again
All his songs can’t bring his child back again

Cursing, Joseph cursing his new wife’s name
He didn’t do it, and someone’s to blame
“It must’ve been the farmer, or maybe the priest”
He mumbles as he aims his twenty-two
At the dove eating bread by the statue
At the dove eating bread by the statue

Lying, Queen of Eternity lying on the sand
You touched my eyes with your water-glazed hand
Then whispered in my ear, as if I couldn’t hear
“I know the Truth, follow me to find it out”
But angel lady, the Truth isn’t what counts
But angel lady, the Truth isn’t what counts
