Writing The Pistols

[Brasil]

?The Pistols?

i.

The Opal,
The Ebony,
The Amber,
The Violet.

ii.

They come,
Each dealing,
None giving.
Each dealing,
None giving.

iii.

Out of white,
Comes dealing.
Under cloak,
Under pretense,
Under false eyes,
It comes dealing.

iv.

Out of night,
Comes dealing.
Jagged barbs,
Lashing and harsh.
Slicing swiftly,
It comes dealing.

v.

Out of shine,
Comes dealing.
Vanishing and
Laying to rest
A false idol,
It comes dealing.

vi.

Out of might,
Comes dealing.
Casting down,
Striking until
Place has been found,
It comes dealing.

REPRISE:

i.

The Opal,
The Ebony,
The Amber,
The Violet.

ii.

They come,
Each dealing,
None giving.
Each dealing,
None giving.
