Blood Orange Sky

from Wrestling With Giants by Damond Moodie

lyrics

6:00 AM,
Soft drone coming from my radio,
Countless tales of atrocities, 360 degrees,
Will we ever know peace, the fragile air before the sunrise?
Bodies under cover, warm but still, ideal compromise.

Chorus:
Expect the best,
And laugh when the worst arrives
Expect the best
Let the worst see your sunshine smile
Expect the best
And laugh when the worst
Comes up and kiss you on the mouth
And puts you on your back,
While you wait for the sunrise

Blood orange sky
The paranoia swells, as a dollar burns down
Flames gulp the air thieves don’t fight fair
No justice, no peace
Can we get a new deal if the ink ain’t dried before the sunrise?
Wake up in a sweat, shower get set, realistic disguise

Chorus

But don’t forget to pray X 4

Chorus
Comes up and punch you in the mouth
While you wait for the sun to rise
