Lyrics:

warm bodies, I sense
are not machines that can only make money
past, perfect, tense
words for a feeling and all I've discovered
I'll be along son with medicine supposed to,
designed to make you high
I'll be along son
with words for a feeling and all I've discovered
old, bad eyes
old, bad eyes
old, bad eyes

on loneliness comes
go see the foreman, go see the profiteer
on loneliness drives
we're takin' our time movin' shit for this holy slime

old, bad eyes
old, bad eyes
old, bad eyes, almighty fear

the shepherd won't leave me alone
he's in my face and I
the shepherd of my days
and I want you here by my heart and my head,
I can't start till I'm dead

[Background Lyrics:]
here I am locking horns with the stallion
failing to hold my head up, I'll go back again
pillar of davidson feeling to hard to go down
cheaper than all the souls he will walk upon
deeper and deeper in love so I hold my head up
cheaper than all the souls he will walk upon
pillar of davidson feeling to hard to go down

Probably my favorite Līve song
Pros
  • moving singing on chorus
  • Ed's voice
This is probably my favorite song. Ed's vocals on the chorus never fails to move me. Shepherd! Love the polyphony (I had to google what it was called) of two lyrics being sung over eachother at the end.

Oops just realized I already reviewed this track. Oh well! It's so good I'll give it 5 stars twice. :)

Favorite track of the album
This is without a doubt my favorite track of the album. The lyrics are wonderful and there's just so much raw emotion when Ed is singing the chorus. Very moving song.

I wish they played it when I saw them recently.
