Silk Flag Blues

(Lyrics again. This time, it flows pretty closely to the classic blues riff. Not too many words here, but I hope they've got an impact.)

Cool night...
Wraps around me...
Like a blanket of silk...stuck to your skin...

Hot lights...
Shine down on me...
Like the sun on a funeral morning...

And I see the sign...
Yes, I see the sign...
I see the sign...
That I haven't seen enough.

Rockets glaring...
Trumpets blaring...a new child.
A new Earth. A new flag...

Fires blazing...
In our hearts and our eyes...
Burning everything before me...

And I see the sign...
Yes, I see the sign...
I see the sign...
That I have...seen...too much.

I want to feel your body.
I want to feel your soul.
I want lose this feeling.
I want to...lose control.
(I wanna..)

Forget the filibuster...
That tells me not to sway...
I want to feel my brother's hand.
And my sister's sexy ways.

And I...
See the sign...
I...see the sign
Of better days...

I said...I see the sign.
Yes, I...I see the sign...
To claim the day.
