lyrics

Fasting in the desert.
Forty days, same as Moses did.
Swept away by some spirit.
Three shots to make a bid.

I won’t make excuses for being idle or being useless.
The demons want me in their grip.

Hungry for some bread
Out in the wilderness.
Starving for the word
that passes gently through the lips.

I won’t make excuses for being idle or being useless.
The demons want me in their grip.

Standing atop the temple,
Where some say they tossed James.
Asked to jump out to the rocks
Like a test or a petty game.

I won’t make excuses for being idle or being useless.
The demons want me in their grip.

High upon the mountain,
On the road to Jericho.
Promised all before me
At the mere cost of the soul.

I won’t make excuses for being idle or being useless.
The demons want me in their grip.
