Glenn Kaiser Album: Time Will Tell Track: Drive Me Down to Shonkin
Drive Me Down to Shonkin Lyrics
I use you when I need you / and leave you when I'm done I've never told you anything / but truth beneath this sun I'm a prairie where love wanders / dying of terrible thirst When the vultures find your carcass / babe I'll be the first I wish I was the devil / I wish I was the Lord The hunger of this twisted heart / best be left ignored
You drive me down to Shonkin / standing by the creek You rub a bluebell's petals / on the stubble of my cheek Your lips bleed when I kiss you / prairie dogs go Underground Montana skies consume us / I resist that whispered sound
The stars obliterated / you leave me the night I find myself by myself / stripped of love and all that's right I wish I was a demon / with no knowledge of what's good But every kiss you give me / is like nails through new wood
I love you and I hate you / I'll kill you with compassion I spout desire's lust / as philosophy and fashion I'm not worth a single glance / why do you still pursue me? I never knew love was so strong / Oh God you've overcome me
