here on the avenues
                                      Burnin
( burnin ' )                                                        


Oh lover can I
See you tonight ?

|||||

Hour of vigilance
Hour of violence

Can we

Set it all alright ?


•••••

Gird your ***** now warriors

Bind your ******* dear maidens

/////

It is all falling down

We are as captured already

The streets are on fire

Mangled souls and bodies

••

Oh lover can I see you tonight ?



Blessed are the pagans
Blessed are the heathen

Blessed child in the alley

Blessed mother in the shadows weeping

|||||

It is the hour of vengeance

Of homeless helpless human-ness

Calling for the lovers

To set the story right

••

The world is dyin

Helpless gods are cryin out

For the saints and angels

For all souls enlightened

For some true courage

Some hint of understanding

Some supreme love and meaning

To fill us now

/////

Lovely love erupting

While the avenues are burning
While the world is burning

While you are sitting there

Burning
