GOD IN THE FLESH

Critical thinkers
Shake on the vine
Here come the killers
From time out of mind
The gathering's over
The ashes are fresh
Let's break this camp apart
Let's hit the road
Let's burn the evidence
Do what you're told
We are an empire
God in the flesh

Gathering preachers
See blood in the sky
Crosses and anger
The Lord of the Flies
Pointing their fingers
Whippin' the crowd
Let's break this camp apart
Let's hit the road
Let's burn the evidence
Do what you're told
We are an empire
God in the flesh

Insincere angels
Bringers of fire
On the road to Damascus
Found a good liar
Where is the covenant?
What is the deal?
On the road to Damascus
A license to steal
A license to steal

Let's break this camp apart
Let's hit the road
Let's burn the evidence
Do what you're told
We are an empire
God in the flesh

Let's burn the evidence
Make dark the heart
Let's burn the evidence
God in the flesh
God in the flesh
God in the flesh
God in the flesh
Let's burn the evidence
Do what you're told
We are an empire
God in the flesh

Critical thinkers
Shake on the vine
Here come the killers
From time out of mind
The gathering's over
The ashes are fresh
Let's break this camp apart
Let's hit the road
Let's burn the evidence
Do what you're told
We are an empire
God in the flesh

I am really excited to try to put your words to music if you'll OK it. I'm pretty sure it's traditional for the wordsmith to get half of any royalties (money? us? Hahahahahahhahah) but I would need to talk to the band to make sure. I am pretty sure I could make a good case for such an arrangement.

Anyway, regardless, great stuff! And thanks for your kind comments about the music.
