A.A. Bondy: No Man Shall

With a long lag runnin'
Upon the silver grass
And there is no future
Remember not your past

And the horses runnin',
Horses runnin' free
And you need not wonder
Of how it came to be

And Lord, I get so high
At the speed of sound I spin
Then I come down, I come down
Come down, I come down
Turn around and do it all again

And the song you're singin'
It has always been
Down through the ages
Has been echoin'

That no man can own you
No man can own you, see
If in your dreams you really
Dreams you really be

Oh
And Lord, I get so high
At the speed of sound I spin
Then I come down, I come down
Come down, I come down
Turn around and do it all again

A.A. Bondy: Rapture

I don't wanna talk about Jesus
Just wanna see his face
The trees are swinging
Like hangin' men
And I just wanna see his face

And rapture, sweet rapture
Won't you lay your hands on me
For I am blind

Mary, take that silver dagger
Put it to my throat
You see that levy,
It's a-bound to break
Put the children in the boat

And rapture, sweet rapture
Won't you lay your hands on me

And rapture, sweet rapture
Won't you lay your hands on me

A.A. Bondy: How Will You Meet Your End

I'm gonna keep that diamond in my mind

For there's hell upon the breeze
There's hell upon the breeze
Six riders ride

They say I must be the devil's child
And the hell upon the breeze
Six riders ride

And all my days I been the losin' kind
And the hell upon the breeze
Love, it ain't mine

Killed my daddy and took his .45
He was no good, though
He was no good
He had to die

Lightning hits the church, the women cry
And the hell upon the breeze
No God in sight

Six riders stand upon the ridge tonight
O Lord, they have found me
My time is nigh

mp3: A.A. Bondy: Vice Rag

Vice Rag

The cover art for the album is beautiful. It has a look of a cave painting. Symbols and shapes are all too familiar but they seem like a trick to a larger inherently unknowable hieroglyph that is hidden under it.
