lirik lagu mark lenover - hooked beaks and feathers

the nostrum that the barker sells
is snake~oil for the brokenhearted
a holiday on a carousel
but, soon you’re right back where you started
and poorer for the brief respite
much less inclined to face reality
you were promised richer lives
well, let me ask you then
did you get what you paid for?

(it can be hard to hear it
and just as hard to ignore;
the prompting of the spirit
the gentle knock at your door
but he’s not pr~nе to violence
you’re free to dig your own gravе
you bought eternal silence
well, did you get what you paid for?)

the vultures form a funnel cloud
and just before it touches down
you glimpse a coal~black horse
the opening of the third seal
finds famine close upon the heels
of rampant war
trailing a frenzied storm
of hooked beaks and feathers
i’ve been exsanguinated
lifeless, yet somehow insane
someone has decorated
my desiccated remains
with formal wear and varnish
and now i’m drawing a crowd;
they’re wreaking silent carnage
from their perches in the cloud
i ask them for some sp~ce, but
they’re all busy on their phones
h~ll is a crowded place, but
everyone suffers alone
abstracted and neurotic
we don’t know what makes us fall
the glow is so hypnotic
we’re going to get what we paid for

(absent minds reduce the arts to
tranquilizers for the fearful, and
stimulation for the dead~at~heart
to keep rigour at bay
we’re going to get what we paid for)

the vultures form a funnel cloud
and just before it touches down
you glimpse a coal~black horse
the opening of the third seal
finds famine close upon the heels
of rampant war
the beads of sweat collecting now
upon the ailing tyrant’s brow
will fall like salted rain
as deserts bake and oceans boil
we cultivate the blighted soil
in gilded chains
and the whole earth mourns
yielding only dust and th~rns
