Guided by Voices - Twilight Campfighter lyrics

Twilight campfighter

You build your fire into an open wound

You want us to feel better

On these darker trails

With light revealing holy grails

To hike through dangerous weather

You need twilight eyes

Sunspot solider, you come from another day

Accept no pay

You want us to feel better

All for longing causes

Racing minds and lengthy pauses

All who must soon shed their veils

And wipe their eyes

As we vegetate and wait around for brighter days

And can dance contented to the sound of money

Could I have seen a sight

Much greater than your twilight eyes

That penetrate your silent lives (lies)

Twilight campfighter

We do congratulate

It's not too late

To make us all feel better

Under darker skies

With your twilight eyes
