Balm of Gilead Lyrics by Iceage

Shake the Feeling: Outtakes & Rarities 2015-2021

2018

Finish up mama, you vicious carnivore
It's all been taken care of, the settlement, the score
They've had it up to here with us, we're out of this canteen
I always beg to differ when I don't know what they mean
Though [?], I stare in cacophony
Been here for a quarter a century
Soft becomes hot money
Sent out for a colored stoney and I need it
Grasping for the balm of Gilead
The house, [?]
In madness and in lost [?]
Blown out, like I need it
Grasping for the balm of [?]
Growin' out of my head are pulsating cockscombs
[?] makes the background pale, it's too [?] the home
Quiver in the cradle, borrow if it's too less
Keep it goin' to [?] a cardiac arrest
Though [?], I stare in cacophony
Been here for a quarter a century
Soft becomes hot money
Sent out for a colored stoney and I need it
Grasping for the balm of Gilead
The house, [?]
In madness and in lost [?]
Blown out, like I need it
Grasping for the balm of Gilead
