Bloodless - The Hit House, Ruby Friedman & Scott Lee Miller

They're profiting from your worry They're selling blanks down at the DMZ They're banking on the sound and fury Makes you wonder what it all's got to do with me Bloodless for now I'm keeping mine with the altruists Putting my weight behind the dancer I know it's hard to be an optimist When you trust least the ones who claim to have the answers It's an uncivil war It's an uncivil war It's an uncivil war Bloodless for now And the poets they explode like bombs (Bloodless for now) The gentry is drinking Moet Chandon (Bloodless for now) Turn around and quote a well known psalm Don't you worry 'bout the wicked Don't you envy those who do wrong And your innocence will be like the dawn While the justice of your cause will shine like the noonday sun Well, the best lack all conviction And the worst keep Sharpening their claws They're peddling in their dark fictions While what's left of us, well, we just hem and we haw And it feels like 1936 In Catalonia In Catalonia Bloodless for now Bloodless for now And the poets they explode like bombs (Bloodless for now) Drinking Moet Chandon (Bloodless for now) Turn around and quote a well known psalm Don't you worry 'bout the wicked Don't you envy those who do wrong And your innocence will be like the dawn While the justice of your cause will shine like the noonday sun

Oh Ruby Jean, last night I dreamed I was runnin' somewhere beyond the stars I called out to you, and you answered softly You are the children's eyes, and I'm the days gone by Oh Ruby Jean, it doesn't seem like a long, long time, since we were born again Into the dazzling light, uniting black and white You are the rich brown earth, and I'm the flowers that grow We'll have children (Lua), of the Kingdom (Joshua) They won't be torn by war, nor will they Kill or hate, or hestitate, to love. Justice Oh Billie Lee, it's destiny that we meet again, here on this earthly plain I'll see all the worlds with you, but you'll have to help me through You are the straight and narrow path, and I'm the wayfayer Oh Billie Lee, we shall be free in the years to come, to help build the Promised Land We'll go where the day springs run, forever and live as one He is the object of our longing, and we're His creation We'll have children (Lua), of the Kingdom (Joshua) They won't be torn by war, nor will they Kill or hate, or hestitate, to love. Justice
