Riddles Lyrics by Ed Schrader’s Music Beat

Riddles

2018

[Verse 1]
Candles and ultralights
Whisper to my tape cassette
I sit underground
I snuck off to the mall
Stole a coin or two I s'pose
From Goddess of plasticine

[Verse 2]
Crossing the fields at night
Broke into the country club
I float under mercury
Fell in some holy water
Its silence muted light
All they got's lukewarm Sprite

[Chorus]
Riddles do me little favor
The Earth has turned Her crystal eyes on me
Whittled to a child cradled
Sleep until I slip away

[Verse 3]
Black nails ate up the sky
Salvation Army crow
Smoke Camels in your mother's car
Red flags are all I see
Don't know black or white
Just speed ahead

[Chorus]
Riddles do me little favor
The Earth has turned Her crystal eyes on me
Whittled to a child cradled
Sleep until I slip away
Riddles do me little favor
The Earth has turned Her crystal eyes on me
Whittled to a child cradled
Sleep until I slip away
Slip away, slip away, slip away
Riddles do me little favor
The Earth has turned Her crystal eyes on me
Whittled to a child cradled
Sleep until I slip away
