Every Time I Feel The Shift Lyrics - The True False Identity - T Bone Burnett

If we were to pass an Eleventh Commandment 

In twenty years people would be shocked to learn 

That there had once been only ten 

And wouldn't care if there had been 

It all comes down to a moment of truth 

Clock ticking in a soundproof booth 

From Corpus Christi to Duluth 

From Genghis Kahn to Babe Ruth 

If I could only see through glass 

I would know what has come to pass 

I wouldn't hurry but I'd get there fast 

What's last is first, what's first is last 

Every time you feel the shift 

You conjure fire in a hieroglyph 

When you're out for revenge dig two graves 

When you run from the truth it comes in waves 

We're marching up to Zion 

The beautiful city of God 

We're marching up to Zion 

The beautiful city of God 

We're marching up to Zion 

The beautiful city of God 

...
