We gave "A Memory of God" the Cold War treatment, but lyrically it probably has more in common with old spirituals, about finding our way back home.


A MEMORY OF GOD

The sky was painted like a desert
With clouds that faded into land
With tinted eyes the sun reflected
We take the daylight while we can

A beacon brought me to the weather
I wallowed in the angry flood
Guide me to the epicenter
Where canyons break the light above

Always say the days are passing
Always played that cycle down
Ascend with every crest to heaven
And turn the weary world around

And there's a fleeting chance you might see
A fleeting chance you might see coming

And so we rise to revelations
And see our fate cut through the fog
I held a torch in search of spirit
I dreamed a memory of God
I dreamed a memory of God

Beginning in March of 2010, Monahans will release a new song each month for the remainder of the year. Each recording will be made available in mp3 format, exclusively to fans and members of our email list and other media networks (Facebook, MySpace, Twitter, etc). In addition to the songs themselves, you may also expect to see video footage, photos from the studio, album art and liner notes along the way, as a means to provide a little more insight into the process as it unfolds over the course of the year.

These recordings will be FREE downloads for the time being, but may be released as a collection for purchase in various formats at a later date.

Thanks for listening--hope you enjoy the songs
