From Nick Cave’s latest album, Wild God.
The song prompted a fan to ask Cave the following:
what makes you decide whether a lyric is great or should be dumped cos it’s utter shit, cos, and I mean this in the nicest possible way, you walk a very fine tightrope between the two, my man.
Which Nick Cave chose to personally answer on his website. It’s a fine read.

Not just a great question, but a wonderful answer! Nick Cave, man. You brilliant enigmatic maniac dancing with light in your eyes and on your face. I hear you.
Nick Cave is the best salt. Beautiful and thoughtful. This song reminds me Blood Meridian; especially the last passage of the book. Through the darkness and gloom, our pursuits give us hope, connect us and continue on without us
