Text: Nick Cave & The Bad Seed. New Morning.

One morn I awakened, a new sun was risin'
A sky was a kingdom all covered in blood
The moon and the stars were troops that lay conquered
Like fruit left to wither, poor spiritual food

And the spears of the bright sun, all brave with its conquest
Did hover unearthly with banners of fire
I knelt in the garden, awash with the dawning
And a voice came so brightly, I covered my eyes

Thank you for giving this bright new morning
So steeped seemed the evening in darkness and blood
Let there be no sadness, no sorrow
There'll be no road too narrow
There?ll be a new day and it?s today
(Ah, yes it's today)
For us
