In Exile
The Basement Tapes (2003)
Lyrics-
Between the lines of us and them
I stand nameless in exile
When boredom rears its ugly head
I search for purpose in exile
When out of place and out of mind,
There is nothing left to lose
I can see the world as I wish, free and classless in exile
Estranged from innocence
Stripped of all that is known
Those who belong are rendered useless in exile
The fruits of ambition yield their voluntary absence
And the guilt of being a Judas in exile
It's a song with no beginning and no end
Whose dissonant chord rings out, boundless in exile
So what kind of idea are you?
The possibilities are endless in exile
The possibilities are endless in exile
But what of the dispossessed longing for their beloved?
Who would know better than the philistine exile
The addresses of right and wrong have shifted
While refugees remain stateless in exile
Desperate hearts awaken rabid stones no longer dormant
The children of war are restless in exile
Killing to be heard in the discord of lies
They say, "we are here, now and forever, promised in exile!"
No one claims responsibility,
Who dares to claim ownership?
All that remains is their pride, relentless in exile
From demons to angels, from the silver screen to the real
The bearer of good news is but a novice in exile
The bearer of good news is but a novice in exile
