Setting Vs. Rising

How you gonna sing a song that runs
From the mouth of where the singing comes
From the mouth of where the song is sung
Do you call a setting sun a sun rising?

How you gonna get the soil and the glory
When you want to be a harvester of light
But the soil only turns under the moon's shitty story?

There may be churches burning down next year
If I'm a city then my citizens will pass no pails along
There may be temples of temptation to take refuge in my dear
If I'm a city then my citizens will cast a vote

As to:
Where you pray Vs. What you're praying for
What/who you love Vs. What you bow before
Where you beg and what you're begging for
