Kevin Nolan - The Dead-Beat Lyrics

I walked a violated mile
Down by Aisling's
With the north wind.

The blood red sky gushed down
Like a livery sedative in my brain.
It cups in the peaks, folds the final
Shore line: a new free state after
The great wars of eroticism.

I followed the bare knuckles of a
Frustrated night and I came across
A cross roads and as I watched her
Flying by
I was shot


But I didn't die so I picked up my moleskine and my blood pencil and I set off on the trail again.

I'm searching for a song that'll save my soul
I'm searching for a song
I'm searching for a song that'll save my soul
I'm searching for a song

Blood red sky
Gushed down

Oh my God, Oh my God, Oh my God, Oh my God, Oh my God, Oh my God, Oh my God, Oh my God, Oh my God, Oh my God, Oh my God, Oh my God, Oh my God...

I'm searching for a song that'll save my soul
I'm searching for a song that'll save my soul

I'm searching for a song that'll save my soul
I'm searching for a song that'll save my soul

If you know who you are then you'll remember me.
If you know who you are then you'll remember me.
I was the head warden who set Leadbelly free.

I heard that you were searching child for your love's refrain so you can free yourself from seeking freedom from gazing at a blood stain.

One day you'll remember when the first bombs fell on Temple bar.
One day you'll remember when the first bombs fell on Temple bar.
Whole wide web of Babel was climbing to the stars, for I took off your boots and threw your bullets to the sea crying
If freedom is the last cage
Then from freedom
Then from freedom we
Then from freedom we will flee.

I'm searching for a song that'll save my soul I'm searching for a song that'll save my soul I'm searching for a song that'll save my soul I'm searching for a song that'll save my soul I'm searching for a song that'll save my soul I'm searching for a song that'll save my soul I'm searching for a song that'll save my soul I'm searching for a song that'll save my soul I'm searching for a song that'll save my soul I'm still searching for a song that'll save my soul searching for a song that'll save my soul

And somewhere unwitnessed the last word is spoken
It's the grumbling groans, and wailing moans

Of a beast
In the distance
Broken.
