Paul Murphy - 'Exit Wounds' . Acoustic , slow version
This is a slight remake of 'Exit Wounds'. Four days on from writing it, I have got the arrangement fairly settled on, and felt it was time to investigate its construction and adjust the musical and vocal nuances somewhat.
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
Sweat-drenched 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
