Paul Murphy - 'Exit Wounds'
Take 3 from the third session on 'Exit Wounds', after which I transferred to electric guitar. This song seems to have a lot of fans - I guess we've all been here.
This is technically gremlined, the guitar pickup not working, but this is the closest [recorded] version to how the song came to me, picking up pace, and steam, as the verses progress, so I thought I would upload it, rather than leave it in the vault.
Light and peace,
Me

'Exit Wounds'
Another night, another game
Another early morning walk of shame
Sideways glances, the usual dances
Pointing fingers, words of blame
A truth, a lie, a reason why
Beyond the mountains, sold saints cry
Emotional blows from unnamed foes
Retributions hanging high
Against the wall spurned lovers fall
Compassion martyrs one and all
False accusers, four-time losers
Panting hands clutch a widow's shawl
Confusion winds decide who wins
As the first dream ends the nightmare begins
Claims are staked on those the gods forsake
Forever is a promise the dawn rescinds
Two steps forward, three leaps back
Ominous footsteps, coming down the track
Soothsayers chanting, victims panting
The Commandments' tablets starting to crack
Price up a soul and place a bet
Try to remember that it's better to forget
Peel back the shroud and cry out loud
The last refuge of the scoundrel is to plead regret
