about

This song is part of an ongoing 365 song calendar I'm slowly composing. It commemorates the date June 25th.

lyrics

I thought that I was Moses. Or one of his tribe: moving through the desert, looking for a sign. But I was the burning bush all along. And I'm going to keep on burning until you come. If you ever do come.

The Lupins along the highway are bursting like grenades. The whole summer going up in flames like a burning bush. But who can read that sign? Not me. I'm basically on fire most of the time.

How does it feel to live this way? I do not know a word that's even close. To know that you are in the world, to know there is a world at all, to see how easy it goes up in smoke...

I follow the commandments as closely as I can. I try to be a venerable version of a man but, as a burning bush, that can only go so far. Won't you come and put me out? Whoever you are...
