attic wolves – the balladeer lyrics
there’s a man on a power line dangling from the sky
asking god for the second time why did you take his wife away
he stares down to the traffic whizzing by, he starts to cry
a hundred feet below that maze of cable in the clouds
betty jean’s been gone for days, she didn’t take her pills
and now she’s walking into traffic
and the people just -ssume that she knows how
i am sitting here and marinating in my scorn
and i’ve got cold feet but the electric heat
from this laptop keeps me warm
i could move but that would only prove
that my volition’s mine to k!ll
the line man talks and betty walks
but i am standing still
captain ivan is sinking down into the bering strait
though the iceberg tore his vessel’s bow
he stays with her content to wait
’til the ocean’s deep fills up his dying lungs, a tune he hums
father john b-lls up his fist as the poison takes control
once a loyal communist, he later took to saving souls
and a public execution was his prize, he slowly dies
i have not known sinking ships
or martyrdom’s sour kiss
all is laced with the bitter taste
of the flavors i have missed
to fear is to tell stories of a million other fates
ivan sinks and the father drinks, but the balladeer just waits

ahhh ahhh ahhh ahhh ahhh
oh my dreams and salient schemes have wrecked this weary ship
dashed to rocks but yet still docked, anch0r-d to a clever quip
someone please save me for i am all alone
grab the oars and set the course, for the balladeer is home
ahhh ahhh ahhh ahhh ahhh
ahhh ahhh ahhh ahhh ahhh
ahhh ahhh ahhh ahhh ahhh
