Walk on Water Lyrics by Kill The Vultures

Ecce Beast

2009

Reverend Revivalist pulls ‘em out they mishaps
As long as the bridle fits you’re sure to hear the whip crack
Thank the lepers with colonial feathers
Tell Sharp Knife Jackson the winter got weathered
Never walk with the lost folks that talk to the air
With machines to their ears; but really, nobody’s there
Keep your John Hancock off faulty peace treaties
Many Colonel Chivington’s who like to Harry Houdini
Off the record, your old man’s running on static
Sometimes my flesh just lets the chemicals have at it
You wouldn’t believe waters that your people have walked
Some sank, some drank the dark oceans they crossed
It is not our nature to nurture the vapors
Of a savior who promises land for our labor
Put your best foot forward when you walk across the border
Either came 'cause voices told you to or 'cause you flipped a quarter
Landed heads-up/ hit the highway, the holy ribbon
Only given is the dead trucks littered with lonely women
Smokey vision blurs-tears come/ shaking me something fearsome
Reminds me of another life when I was twenty years young
Peering out Venetian blinds/ don't let me be the crime
If I don't see it, fine/ I'll lean behind a drug store peace of mind
Man, they don't know you from a South Dakota landscape
Bulletproof glass and intercoms separate that handshake
Can't escape a drifter's dust is his to carry
'bituary columns nothing but a rustic vision buried
Military tags in medicine bags hold the offering
The doctor brings amphetamine drags to slow you properly
Chorus:
I’ll tell my children they can walk on water
Our folks are all walking on fire for fire water
I’ll tell my children they can walk on water
Smooth-talkers always tend to lead the lamb to the slaughter
I’ll tell my children they can walk on water
Our folks are all walking on fire for fire water
I’ll tell my children they can walk on water
Watch the hand they keep hidden when they’re making an offer
Now the triggermen tally roman numeral marks
While the bagpipes blow, police funerals march
But its just another story from the cold observatory
Heard the prisoner bangin' rocks produced a beautiful spark
Chorus
