about

This music was written in the early 1990s and was demo'd with different lyrics for Kanude's New York-based band at the time. TiSH wrote the lyrics for this version in early 2019, while the couple were based in Beaverton, Oregon.

"Ashes to Ashes"

VERSE
Ashes to Ashes, and Dust to Dust
Isn’t that how the spell goes – who forged the Bible?
No one really knows
Wars fought in the name of love Dead children in their wake
We always find a reason
To kill for someone’s soul to save
Holy men scream abomination
Has it brought themn to their peace? Has it brought them gratitude?
Will it bring them to their knees?
A case of righteous indigestion
As they set down to the feast
Are they serving God or worshiping the Beast? They rise and scream:

BRIDGE
I’M GOING TO HEAVEN. I’M GOING TO HEAVEN
I’M A RIGHTEOUS BEAST BUT I’M, I’M GOING TO HEAVEN
AND WHEN JESUS GREETS ME
THE ANGELS WILL FALL AT MY FEET I’M GOING TO HEAVEN

VERSE
What are we all to do?
Seems like we’re kinda screwed Laugh in the face of death – no fear Love’s the solution and love is here.
Love’s more than a solution It’s a global revolution
Inner peace – it brings union... Whoah...
More than part of the problem, you are
A conscious parasite
Now, starve yourself. Wake up from the cocoon Sinner your dreams are over soon.
Your wings are your true sight We are care bears blasting light Through the gloomy illusion The future, it’s always bright
One act of kindness Leads a thousand more A friend in need
Is knocking at your door.
