Thread Name: Lyr Req: Caffeinated Warriors (Antje Duvekot)
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Caffeinated Warriors by Antje Duvekot
I listened to a live performance by Antje Duvekot on YouTube. She leaves out a few of the lines you have and repeats others. It is still hard to understand.

I also listened to Claire Dacey singing the same song. She is a bit easier to understand, but it is still questionable whether she is singing the words Antje Duvekot wrote.

Anyway, here's what I have. Judge for yourself whether they are correct:

Goodbye Joan of Arc and all you caffeinated warriors....

I charted my course through fields of unfinished cathedrals....

I watched it pour like a flood on the surface of Lake Erie....

These castles of sand now stand beyond the winter....

Goodbye Townes Van Zandt and all you damned exalted ramblers....
