about

At the station... more hints of the themes to come.
Segues into the Burning bush, both Australian Moses' vision. (Exodus).

lyrics

Red Central

Now for a sign…
I had no money.
Enough money to buy a ticket to go.
Burns inside my chest
there’s a dark sun that glows
I wanted to just get away,
Hahaha
I had, ha! intentions to just…
No oxygen
Except in my, my blood
I was gonna do this.


There is a dark sun
That writes sad stories on the insides of my veins.
Anyway I bought this ticket
And I must’ve spent everything I had on this ticket.
…escape the heat in summer right now
There is a dark sun that glows

Grounds my weight,
Good afternoon passengers
Heavy.
Herr Hauptmann
…. the bush and said,”Moses, Moses”
will be the 3:04 train,
Stopping all stations.


Burning Bush Blues

a dark sun
That’s disturbing
no oxygen except
Eventually took me in to the local
‘Loony bin’.
Sometimes break
woohoo
on the insides of my veins
your worst nightmare

jawohl, Herr Hauptmann
lights on the mountainside
Sometimes break and tear away.
bush that burns
the bush does not burn

Like my legs
that are running
to the insides of your arms,
the only ones that know
Herr Hauptmann
How to hold me.
