The High and Lonesome lyrics- Elegantly Wasted

Sydney based band, with lyrics somewhat reminiscent of Ian Curtis and Leonard Cohen-

There are armies, with guns and blood on their sides
There's patterns, of rage and terror which hides
There are prisons and decisions and verdicts yet to be made
There's anguish, a language, a fertile foundation we laid

Oh, oh questioning our Loral’s we stayed
Away from those, who thought darken thoughts on me
Upon this land where our battles were fought
Ambition is a’ misty to see
The deepest sands, where power found its peak,
But only flew further from me
Further from me

There's pleasures foreseen in the eyes of the witch
There's a dynasty of these fools, we call them the bitch
There are circuses with clowns masked in disguise
There are phantoms in alleys, who rule their lives

At risk you take my hand, just know I am no stronger than before
My time is done, and little do they think of me
So just ignore life’s sporadic waves
When ambition is misty to see
The deepest sands, where power found its peak,
But only flew further from me
Further from me

From me
And as you put me down
And as you put me down
The inevitable was found
And pushed its way to sea
Further from me
Further from me
Oh further from me now now
Further from me now now
Further from me now now

Further from me now now
Further from me now now
Further from further from me

So just ignore life’s sporadic waves
When ambition is misty to see
The deepest sands, where power found its peak,
But only flew further from me
Further from me

Oh further from me now now
Further from me now now
Further from me now now
Further from me now now
Further from me now now
Further from further from me

At least they had the decency to put "and" between "high" and "lonesome", lest Del McCoury crap a brick (inside joke). Didn't INXS/Michael Hutchence have a tune with the same name? Another of my betes noires...2 songs with the same name--shows a paucity of imagination.
