about
Part of the forthcoming musical drama 'The Reunion'.
lyrics
If I am a felon my crime can not be named.
If I am a jester I joke with sacred things.
If I am a liar may I plunge from the sky
Face first to the stones of the market-place.
If I am a liar, may damned souls burn my guitar
In lakes of electrified shark-infested lava
May the wreckage stretch out its strings
In an agony of moonlight - silent - eternal -
If I am a liar the Angels will love me all the same
As my gorgeous unfortunate and terrifying sister
Whose story untold even to the gaps between the stars
Must be true: what else could hold this night together?
What else re-unites these sparks?
And holds this perfect night together?
Her judges looked for a little flower of evil
And discovered an orchard of a million trees
Every tree had a million fruit
Every fruit a million seeds
Looked for a well and found an ocean
Looked for a woman and found a warrior's soul.
And men have a right to their terror.
What could give them a more perfect right to their terror?
God hurled his bravest and most beautiful Angel
From Heaven to Earth - blazing, flailing, raging
But never accursed. Accursed? Never, never!
For all the joys of evil and mercy followed
All the songs and dances followed.
The joys of evil and mercy followed.
All the songs and dances followed.
