In The Wake Of Adversity - Dead Can Dance



Dave: [I don't think it's Sacred Priests, doesn't sound right]

Bud: [ It does fit the song's meaning, if not the precise sound

though. Pious priests, with their "narrow ways," wouldn't

care at all to argue with you or I because they know they

are right. And of course, the angels they pretend to

know so much about, in reality, favour "us". But, these

priests cannot see the inner man.



But the song begins with the sound, "ey" or "hey". Comical.

What do you think?



Sacred priests don't cry....(?)

[____-tries] don't cry

they've no reason to argue

at all

they don't realise

that the angels surround you with light

they don't understand

their narrow ways defeat them where they stand

they don't realise

you hide the sadness beneath a painted smile.



Ignorance,

that line of fools steers a wayward path

and set the course upon which we sing into the night of uncertainty.

Following the stars

that make their way across the sky

valuing the love

that land brings to our eyes

We sail
