Houdini Punches
Jay Farrar
Wind gale blows the dust off of holy ground
No exit for hope gone from bad to worse
Mocking the salt of society's dream
Comprehension and pain to pick up off the floor
Hijacked human, waylaid condition
Lives are buzzing around
With an eye to the scorekeeper
Cold reality falls when the new thrill burns down
Feelings resonate, parallel lives get drawn out
Too many Houdini punches being thrown
Stranded by reasons for staying not going
Vision is a telescope when you're on your own
Hijacked human, waylaid condition
Lives are buzzing around
With an eye to the scorekeeper
Cold reality falls when the new thrill burns down
Lives are buzzing around
With an eye to the scorekeeper
Cold reality falls when the new thrill burns down
