I IV V Songtext
von Don McCloskey

There′s gunshots outside my apartment
There's protests inside my head
Bullet holes in these worn out clothes
Thank God you′re in my bed

We exercise each other's favorite demons
And they amplify each other's favorite songs
And we all dance to the chaos and the beauty
All night long
All night long
All night long

Cause in my quest for meaning
I keep running into these stops
Like a dog off a leash running wild running free
Until I feel that collar shock

I get shocked back by the laws of physics
I get shocked back by the laws of man
I get shocked back by Mr. Smith and his Invisible Hand
Invisible Hand
Invisible Hand


And the darkness is always coming
But my check engine light is always on
Yeah we′re three hundred thousand miles
And just keep running

On and on and on and on and on and on
And on and on and on and on and on
On and on and on and on and on and on
And on and on and on and on
On and on and on and on and on and on
And on and on and on and on
On and on and on and on and on and on
And on and on and on and on and on


And of all the sacred religions
The only one that ever helped me get by
Is the one that taught me the mantra
I IV V in 4/4 time
Faster! Louder! More Divine!
I IV V in 4/4 time
Faster! Louder! More Divine!
I IV V in 4/4 time
Faster! Louder! More Divine!
I IV V in 4/4 time
Faster! Louder! More Divine!
More Divine!
More Divine!
