cut my wings break me down
my faith is gone i've lost my crown
am i alive or is this a dream
because the illusions are breaking at the seams
what am i following why am i bothering
i fell a victim to the trick and now i'm sick of all of it
all i got is this box of strings
am i really bringing anything
why do i question love when it burns so deep inside my chest
why do i live in fear when i always know that i'm under his blanket
are you a saint or just a man in a blanket
can you please fess up because i just can't take it
i love you too much for it to be a lie
just give me proof say the news either way i'll cry and cry
if it's all a hoax i'll die
and if you're telling the truth i'll fly
all i want to do is just stay in your holy grace
let you wash me down lord and let you paint my face
feed people serve people
take them to the holy steeples
where the rascals manufacture love to show us that we're equal
constellations station meditation for the dying
kiss your wish to make it bliss and give it to the crying
children can't find shelter so they retreat to the drugs
give out both your hands man and swallow them with love
the clock is ticking way too fast
triggers are pulled and guns blast
while the mothers take their children to the kindergarten class
well i'm under the blanket we're gonna make it to that holy place
where we are united without violence every single race
look into eyes and you will find that we're all of the same
blood blood blood blood blood blood blood
well neem karoli baba well he taught me like a father
i'm a ramayana soldier fighting with his love and honor
holy mother tell your brothers
wrap them up in all your covers
this is the time to rise and shine and burn off all the thunder
feel it all in your blood blood
unify and become come
all of us on the run run
our revolution of love
all of the elements turn turn
fire and water they burn
Om Mani Padme Hum Om Mani Padme Hum Om Mani hey

this song is not about a cult. this song is about Neem Karoli Baba, the great indian saint. Baba wears a blanket, hence under his blanket. it's about realizing that baba is his guru. He's finally waking up and seeing the illusions of this life. " why do i live in fear when i always know i'm under his blanket" Baba always says "you are to fear nothing." this is trevor saying, i should not fear, baba is taking care of it. "are you a saint or just a man in a blanket" either way he'll cry and cry because if baba is not a true saint then he will be devastated, if he is he will cry tears of joy.
baba says "feed people, serve people"
from there on it pretty much speaks for itself.
I love this song and just realized what it means (in my opinion) I think this song is about a cult. He talks about being broken down, pleasing the lord (leader), manufacturing love, saying he'll die if this is all a lie. He say's they are all the same, a cult like feature.
These lines Children can't find shelter, so they retreat to the drugs Give out both your hands, man, and swallow them with love
Where a the leader/recruiter takes children who aren't wanted by their families and have drug addictions.
I would love to hear anyone's interpretation!
Om Mani Padhi Hum, Dylan.

Maybe... the blanket represents God's control. And he's asking why he follows the routines he does. "Look into eyes and you will find that we're all of the same Blood blood blood blood, blood blood blood " In Christianity, Jesus gave his blood for everyone, not just those who follow him and don't. He loves everyone the same.
This song is about Krishna. Which is who Trevor Hall "worships." I know this for sure since I met him and talked to him at my temple because I aswell "worship" Krishna.
