Is anyone awake? Anyone at all?
Siren song is calling me, it's getting louder now
Compromise is here, I know it's all a lie
I need to hear the melody of Your tune
So take me home but keep me feeling lonely
when everyone is around
You're trying to show me how to hear Your song
down here by the water
Far away from the lights I see that I can't live two lives
Everywhere I go I carry with me
this ceiling that divides us - it's coming in between
When conversation turns into a monologue
I need to just be silent here and listen for Your tune
Night time lends its ear to the sound of my disappointment
When the ideal fades I don't want to complain
If I go to the dark, You illuminate
all the shadows that aren't there
Running away is just a poor metaphor
because I'm never quite as far as I think
Danger, the way that she moves in your brain
without a face
Patient You wait, even though I was wrong
it's not the same
Looking weak never had more appeal
Bend the knee, stop this heart for a while
Counting on the grace You give
Just when I think that I'm alone I think about You more
Go tell the world that there is nothing here to hide
It seems like everyone's been covering their eyes
Words that You didn't say were haunting these pages
Faces You didn't make were all I was seeing
The way that they painted You wasn't a picture
of one in control - and I don't think they know who you are
Build brackets around You so You can come out clean
We tried to give You limits that You didn't need
You can order all this heartbreak
You don't need my permission to move
I wish they would just stop trying to filter You out
Rid me of the notion that I ever had any rights
Cleanse me of the motives that come in such a clever disguise
Ruin my agenda, holy as it never was
It's all from Your hand
and there's nothing that's mine
and all that You give
You're free to take away
I'm just trying to hold on, clinging to the dream inside
I was only selfish, and you were only part of my life
Every breath, every word
There isn't one thing I deserve
Decide nothing
I depend for everything
You don't need me
You don't need anything
Remedies were bankrupt like the rest of these
Forget what they told you - there's no self-help
Taken by Your glory - don't look back now
I don't care who I am, I lost that interest
I'm giving weight to circumstance
You'd swear I'm hopeless
This time just isn't like the last
I said that last time too
This could be, this could be
It's over, the summer is almost gone
This could be history
It's over, the clouds are breaking now
All that is separating us
years or minutes
But some days I can't wait for the end
Perspectives changing again
And all of the looks that you keep on giving me are killing me
Must have been that winter cold
That made me set out on my own
I said my goodbyes and left You behind
Growing up is getting old
Bring back the memories
bring back that smile because I've outgrown them
Now I remember but everything's changed
Still I'm captivated by that face You wear tonight
Must have been the April thaw
That made me hunger for Your arms
You welcomed me back and you held me close
Overnights don't seem so cold
Bring back the memories
Bring back that smile because I've outgrown them
Now I remember but everything's changed
Still I'm captivated by that face You wear tonight
I'm sick and tired of blending in
And never telling anyone
How You set this sinner free
You found me living without hope
And then You drew me to Yourself
And Your mercy made me clean
And I will tell Your story for the world to hear
I will tell Your story for the world to hear
Of Your great love and how it rescued me
You came into the world You made
And then died upon a tree to bring us back to You
You're like fire in my bones and like fire in my soul
And I can't hold You in anymore
And I will tell Your story for the world to hear
I will tell Your story for the world to hear
Of Your great love and how it rescued me
And I will tell Your story for the world to hear
I will tell Your story for the world to hear
Of Your great love and how it rescued me
What if nobody told me?
Where would I be without You now?
What if nobody told me?
Where would I be?
I will tell Your story
I will tell Your story
And I will tell Your story for the world to hear
I will tell Your story for the world to hear
Of Your great love and how it rescued me, oh
And I will tell Your story for the world to hear
I will tell Your story for the world to hear
Under open skies I leave the day behind
Wonder in my eyes, the world feels so alive
I just speak Your name and my heart seems to change
God of truth and grace, I can only praise You
And the stars are singing
Out the glory of Your wondrous love
Heaven's reaching down
To show me all that You have done for me
Healer of my heart
Come burn away the dark
Under soft twilight
I can hear Your voice tonight
And the stars are singing
Out the glory of Your wondrous love
Heaven's reaching down
To show me all that You have done for me
And Your name is higher than the heavens
And Your glory fills a million skies
And Your heart is reaching down from heaven
And my soul cries out, my soul cries out to You
And the stars are singing
Out the glory of Your wondrous love
Heaven's reaching down
To show me all that You have done
And the stars are singing
Out the glory of Your wondrous love
Heaven's reaching down
All of me longs for You, light of the world
Coming soon, breaking through all this pain
Falling down, calling out, Your love surrounding me
For You I wait, in You I wait
I will look to the day when You're coming again
To heal the hearts of men when You come down
Let us look to the sky with redemption in our eyes
Watch the world come alive when You come
Broken hearts will finally see the light of the world
Every tear wiped away through our eyes
Every sin that held us down, they all will disappear
And so I wait, for You I wait
I will look to the day when You're coming again
To heal the hearts of men when You come down
Let us look to the sky with redemption in our eyes
Watch the world come alive when You come down
When You come
All of me longs for You, light of the world
I will look to the day when You're coming again
To heal the hearts of men when You come down
Let us look to the sky with redemption in our eyes
Watch the world come alive when You come down
You lost yourself in finding out
The wonders of the world will let you down
You gave yourself to those who never
Cared about your soul, they only cared for their own
Seems everyone has left you
You're not alone, I hear you call
And I've been waiting here for you through it all
You're not alone, come to the cross
Let me show you where your heart belongs
You're not alone
You went down the darkest roads
And you know just how it feels to lose your hope
But don't give up on everything
When everyone has given up on you
And it feels like everyone has left you
You're not alone, I hear you call
I've been waiting here for you through it all
You're not alone, come to the cross
Let me show you where your heart belongs
You're not alone
I will never leave you
Come back to my open arms
To the only love you need
You're not alone, I hear you call
And I've been waiting here for you through it all
You're not alone, come to the cross
Let me show you where your heart belongs
All of the things you wanted were just outside your atmosphere
And if you could just have them you would be happy apart from me
And it took a while but it was more than worth the wait
The rain was falling when you said "I'm leaving"
I had to watch you go
I want this fall to change
I never heard you say that you were wrong
You picked out your path but didn't you ever wonder if I was ok?
And doesn't the guilt eat up your mind? I just thought I'd ask
And it took a while but it was more than worth the wait
This year october came
All these questions hid in me so long
I don't know how I got to where I am
All I know is that I wanna go back
To the moment when I fell in love with grace
And I hear you whisper
Hang on, hang on
I know your hope seems gone
Hang on, hang on
Sometimes the heartache makes you strong
I try my best to pray but my heart won't move
And all the words the saints say, they just don't help
I wanna go back to when I first called out Your name
And I hear You whisper
Hang on, hang on
I know your hope seems gone
Hang on, hang on
Sometimes the heartache makes you strong
Remember the first time love turned you around
To the moment when I fell in love with grace
To the day when I first called out Jesus' name
Jesus
Hang on, hang on
I know your hope seems gone
Hang on, hang on
Sometimes the heartache makes you strong, oh
Hang on, hang on
I know your hope seems gone
Hang on, hang on
Sometimes the heartache makes you strong
Remember the first time love turned you around
I remember the first time love turned me around
Landlocked eyes, jealous minds
That won't stop for me now
One time find, lover's prize
That won't stop for me
But it's You that makes the mountains move
And sets them in their places, in their places
The day breaks, the night falls
And don't I look the same as everyone?
Put their hope in one more kiss
That won't stop for me now
And hide their wounds inside their hearts
And they hardly breathe
But it's You that makes the mountains move
And sets them in their places, in their places
The day breaks, the night falls
And don't I look the same?
But love come and change me
So I'm hoping, You and nothing else
Stone set eyes, fixed on life that won't stop
The day breaks, the night falls
And don't I look the same?
But love come and change me, oh
So I'm hoping, You and nothing else
Stone set in You, stone set in You
Where you are right now
Isn't where I'm supposed to be, I know
But I entertain the thought
Promise I will make it brief and go
I'm gone
I'm gone
I'm gone
I won't stay by the side of the road
And just wait for another tomorrow
Maybe we could make it there by tonight
'Cause the road always seems too long
And the right turns sometimes feel wrong
But don't stop this time, this time
Everyone I pass
Feels the same way on a different street
Fall asleep for days
It's not envy if it's just a dream
I'm gone
I'm gone
I'm gone
I won't stay by the side of the road
And just wait for another tomorrow
Maybe we could make it there by tonight
'Cause the road always seems too long
And the right turns sometimes feel wrong
But don't stop this time
I'm gone
I'm gone
I'm gone
I'm gone
I'm gone
We're gone
I won't stay by the road
And wait for tomorrow
Maybe we could make it there by tonight
'Cause the road always seems too long
And the right turns sometimes feel wrong
When I can't walk, will You carry me?
When I can't stand
Will You take me by the hand
And pick me up right where I am?
You are the only one for me
The look in Your eyes is all that I need
And this world can offer anything
But they can keep it all
'Cause You're the only one for me
You're the only one for me
When I feel lost, will You stay with me?
When I can't go on
Lord, Your grace, it picks me up
And makes me strong
I know this is love
'Cause You are the only one for me
The look in Your eyes is all that I need
And this world can offer anything
But they can keep it all
If You asked me to give up everything that I have
You know I would
Go to the ends of the earth just to show You
That You are the only one for me
And this world can offer anything
But they can keep it all
They can keep it all
'Cause You are the only one for me
The look in Your eyes is all that I need
And this world can offer anything
But they can keep it all
'Cause You're the only one for me
You're the only one for me
In an old apartment waiting for the walls to move
Praying that someone, hoping that no one intrudes
Living like an actor, feeling like a poet bruised
But no man is an island
Lay down your robe, leper or rogue
Keep yourself open here
Don't let the cold close to your soul
Lonely tonight
Passing like a shadow, never letting anyone see
And maybe I'm biased but I don't think
You know the first thing about me
But no man is an island
Lay down your robe, leper or rogue
Keep yourself open here
Don't let the cold close to your soul
No one is free, come light
And heavier stones think to themselves
That they're alone here
But everyone grieves and everyone feels
Lonely tonight
Don't tell me you know
When I know you don't
Don't tell me you know
When you know you don't
Lay down your robe, leper or rogue
Keep yourself open here
Don't let the cold close to your soul
No one is free, come light
And heavier stones think to themselves
That they're alone here
But everyone grieves and everyone feels
Lonely tonight
Knowing that Your heart's content
Was the thing that shut their mouths
Watching as You value
Someone more than Yourself
And You taught it well
Send us right away
Our girl doesn't waste her breath
She stands like a sage
She moves but she never moves
Away from You, away from You
Even as the tears fall
The smile never leaves
Wondering the heartaches
That they will never see
That is everything
Send us right away
Our girl doesn't waste her breath
She stands like a sage
She moves but she never moves
Away from You
And You're watching
Everything around You slowly start to fade
But You're holding on to love
Even though Your heart starts to break
Send us right away
Our girl doesn't waste her breath
She stands like a sage
She moves but she never moves
Give me one more chance tonight
to keep you waiting for nothing
Give me one more chance tonight
to keep you waiting for nothing
and make you stay here in this place
where you are only what they say you are
You can save the lie,
we are the ones
we are the ones
who've seen the other side
Say our own goodbyes,
leaving the world
leaving the world
and all our cares behind
Give me one more chance today to keep you sitting in one place
Riding on the fence you're made,
you're only partly dying this way
This way
You can save the lie,
we are the ones
we are the ones
who've seen the other side
Say our own goodbyes,
leaving the world
leaving the world
and all our cares behind
Am I keeping you from life?
Or am I keeping you alive?
We are the ones
We are the ones
We are the ones
We are the ones
who've seen the other side
Say our own goodbyes,
leaving the world
leaving the world
and all our cares behind
We are the ones
We are the ones
We are the ones
We are the ones
We are the ones
So it seems that I'm wrong 'cuz you said that
I would never want for anything again
But my eyes are set low and I'm holding
To the things I know I can't keep
I keep on chasing the wrong things and coming up empty
This isn't who I'm supposed to be
I keep on learning the hard way from every mistake
And I'm finding each time that you fall, you're just becoming who you are
So it seems that I'm wrong 'cuz I keep on
Searching for the answers that I don't need
I know I don't need
I keep on chasing the wrong things and coming up empty
This isn't who I'm supposed to be
I keep on learning the hard way from every mistake
And I'm finding each time that you fall, you're just becoming who you are
Becoming who you are
You're just becoming, just becoming
You're just becoming, just becoming
I keep on chasing the wrong things and coming up empty
This isn't who I'm supposed to be
I keep on learning the hard way from every mistake
And I'm finding each time that you fall, you're just becoming who you are
I'm finding each time that you fall, I'm finding each time that you fall
Watch my mind grow legs and wander
What did I expect to find out here?
I am only halfway here tonight
Say that You can take this off of my mind
Every time I go back I realize
that yesterday is never as good as it seems
I'm lost in the feelings that I thought were gone
Come in and make all of their light fade out - it fades out
Dull the edge so that it's softer
and it won't offend their ears
Water down to make it simple
you could sell it anywhere
But now it seems you're disenchanted
and you're wanting more
You're afraid to reason
Your love is saving no one
The market is open
If it's easy we will buy it all
And I watched you let yourself out
like you had something to prove
but you're more than who you're sleeping with
and I know it bothers you
And now it seems you're disenchanted
but you've got to save face
Praising all your feelings they are only fiction
If you search for comfort you won't find it
I don't know if I still have the strength to get up again
I don't know if I can face my own reflection
Jesus, take this heart that feels so cold again
And make it new
I hold this hope inside that You'll never leave me
When all around me starts to fall
And when my faith it seems so small
Even in my darkest hour, I will believe
I don't know how I could turn my back and walk away
All I really want is for Your love to hold me
Jesus, take this heart and make it whole again
I know You'll never leave me
When all around me starts to fall
And when my faith it seems so small
Even in my darkest hour, I will believe
Even if the sun begins to fall
Even when I feel nothing at all
Even if I'm all alone, I will believe
I believe, I believe, I believe
When all around me starts to fall
And when my faith it seems so small
Even in my darkest hour
When all around me starts to fall
And when my faith it seems so small
Even in my darkest hour, I will believe
Even if the sun begins to fall
Even when I feel nothing at all
Even if I'm all alone, I will believe
I believe, I believe, I believe
Help me build a ladder
To climb out of this hole
Help me make up for the time
To fade in hard lost hope
Help me build a staircase
Build it out of stone
Help me walk on out of here
Make my way back home
Help me brother
Help me sister
Help me Lord
‘Cause no one gets out of here alone
Help me pack my suitcase
I’m heading for the train
Help me board, the engine’s roaring
And the sky’s growing heavy with rain
Help me brother
Help me sister
Help me Lord
‘Cause no one gets out of here alone
No Hollywood starlet
No monarch on is flown
President – no rich man son
No one gets out of here alone
Help me build a ladder
To climb out of this hole
Help me make up for the time
The greed and then this stow
Help me brother
Help me sister
Help me Lord
I’m gonna jump off the roof now
And land on the crust of the earth
I’m gonna make an impression
I’m gonna show you what I am worth
Send it up
Your smoking lid is gonna
Send it up
In a giant balloon I’m gonna
Send it up
Gonna get a reaction, gonna
Send it up
Gonna be home soon
I’m gonna dive in the ocean
I’m gonna walk on the crust of the earth
I’m gonna make an impression
I’m gonna show you why what I am worth
Send it up
Your smoking lid is gonna
Send it up
In a giant balloon I’m gonna
Send it up
Gonna get a reaction, gonna
Send it up
Gonna be home soon
I’m afraid, I’m afraid
But I’m gonna do it anyway
I’m afraid, I’m afraid
But I’m gonna do it anyway
Send it up
Your smoking lid is gonna
Send it up
In a giant balloon I’m gonna
Send it up
Gonna get a reaction, gonna
Send it up
Gonna be home soon
I’m afraid, I’m afraid
But I’m gonna do it anyway
I’m afraid, I’m afraid (send it up, send it up)
But I’m gonna do it anyway
I’m gonna send it up in letters
Hear the chanting for love
Send it up in letters
Send it up, send it
Hey I’m gonna send it up
Hey I’m gonna send it up
I call from the road, the phone keeps on ringing
You’re probably bringing the groceries in from the car
I call from the road, it’s 5 on the east coast
The feeling I miss most is being wherever you are
Oh, would I do this again?
Wouldn’t mind to repeat, this feels like a sentence
I’ll never complete
This loneliness burdens, you could die from the heat or
explode
Why don’t you answer my call from the road?
I call from the road, his knee on the tring
Hoping in vain that I’ll be with you Monday by noon
I call from the road, the backed up is runnin
The TV is humming, they’re planting a flag on the moon
Oh, would I do this again?
Wouldn’t mind to repeat, this feels like a sentence
I’ll never complete
This loneliness burdens, you could die from the heat or
explode
Why don’t you answer my call from the road?
Are you there?
Can’t you her me calling?
Are you there?
Can’t you her me falling down?
Oh, would I do this again?
Wouldn’t mind to repeat, this feels like a sentence
I’ll never complete
This loneliness burdens, you could die from the heat or
explode
Why don’t you answer my call from the road?
Are you there?
Are you there?
Time moves in funny stages
Fluttering through the night air like moths
Glimpses of weary faces
Pale like flower, like chalk
Patience now, it’s me again
Do you have a light for my cigarette?
I’ve been trying so hard
To forget
Time picks the strangest wages
The more you earn, the more you owe
Your face, it barely ages
Just a line for every secret you know
Half the facts are all we’ve got
We ain’t ready for the second half yet
And I have been trying so hard
To forget
I tell you this but don’t repeat it
At least don’t connect it to my name
I’ve never felt so defeated
Tell me this is all just a game
Ask now
Walk now
Well I see this is getting you upset
I’ve been trying so hard
To forget
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Oh, oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Oh, oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Oh, oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Oh, oh oh oh
It’s midnight in the morning
The moon is where the sun should be
It’s casting ghostly shadows
And looking down on me
It’s midnight in the morning
My baby’s up and gone
The rooster and the crow wait
It’s just waiting for the dawn
It’s midnight in the morning
The stars are where the sun should be
They’re hanging there suspended
And looking down on me
It’s midnight in the morning
I feel so far away
And my time is the ocean
I’ll be swimming toward the day
Yea, I was in confusion
And the bats are gold as sky
There’s a warm and it’s blurry
But it’s sinister and dry
It’s midnight in the morning
And I can’t see the light of dawn
It’s like the world stopped its turning
And everything feels wrong
It’s midnight in the morning
I’m broken up inside
I’m on the edge of madness
High wind tearing up the trees
Tension finally gets released
And you, not to be adorn
Break into a rock
Running through the leafs
Is a 1000 blackbirds fall
From a simple sky on New Year ’s Eve
Oh shit, I forgot my kiss
Now it’s time for us to flee
And we’ll have to catch a buss
With an hour to discuss
To laugh and then to grieve
Is a 1000 blackbirds fall
From a simple sky on New Year ’s Eve
Notice the air is thick as brass
Woke up, clouds are drifting past
And we’re in bed and making love
Chinese satellites above
Oh, what man conceives
Is a 1000 blackbirds fall
The moon glows red when it comes near
It will pierce your soul like a poisoned spear
You’ll be nothing but lost, an empty desire
Like you’re made of ash & chickenwire
Come out, come out ‘fore it’s too late
Now don’t you pause a visitee
He’ll bring you all that you require
‘Til you’re nothing but ash & chickenwire
She’ll break you down so neatly
You’ll never have felt more alone
She’ll break your heart so completely
And take from you everything you own
You’ll set aside and chained
‘Til there’s not a drop of blood running through your
veins
She’ll burn you like a chemical fire
You’ll be nothing but ash & chickenwire
She’ll break you down so neatly
You’ll never have felt more alone
She’ll break your heart so completely
And take from you everything you own
The rain hits up when she comes by
Vultures circle in the sky
Her possess, her lips inspire
‘Til you’re nothing but ash & chickenwire
You’ll be nothing but ash & chickenwire
Nothing but ash & chickenwire
She’s at this to gut your throat
Nothing but ash & chickenwire
Change is about to come
You’ll be nothing but ash & chickenwire
She’s at this to gut your throat
You’ll be nothing but ash & chickenwire
Change is about to come
Nothing but ash & chickenwire
What’s it means to me
It’s far beyond expression
I’m grateful for everything she’s done
I’d move mountains for my love
There’ll be no hesitation
I shine on her just like the blazing sun
I’m more than I have to be
But I know that she’s behind me
I don’t need no diamonds, no special recognition
Don’t need more than both my hands can hold
I’ll be satisfied in all of ambition
Brings a joy and comfort to a soul
And nothing puts my mind at ease
Like when I know that she’s behind me
It’s nothing to avert
Well it’s more like due than rain
It’s just the sense you carried with you
In the darkness and the pain
This thought I care, it makes me free
Cause I know that she’s behind me
Some in search up high
They miss all the small things
The subtle shades of what makes living real
Hey now, don’t you see?
It’s so much order of all things
Is that isn’t what you got, it’s how you feel
And it feels so good to see
That my baby’s right behind me yea
Well it’s nothing to avert
It’s more like due than rain
It’s just the sense you carried with you
In the darkness and the pain
This thought I care, it makes me free
Oh arabesque
Ever becoming which I’m not
You’re always dreaming of a stronger light
Oh arabesque
All of the patterns in your faith
All into locking, you’re invincible
Strange noises from behind your door
How I long to be inside
Speak you voices that I can’t ignore
If it weren’t for you I swear I would’ve died
Oh arabesque
I see you suffer with your sins
Loving is easy when you fall in love
Oh arabesque
My movie’s running and it’s late
So call me tomorrow and I’ll stay with you
Strange noises from behind your door
How I long to be inside
Speak voices that I can’t ignore
If you weren’t there for me I swear I would’ve died
You see tomorrow is opening
With the speaks for us and the sigh
You and I, we get stuck between
Your feelings and my pride
Oh arabesque
I didn’t mean to make you sad
All I was trying to do is sing for you
Oh arabesque
Do you remember when we met?
Do you remember all the silences?
Strange noises from behind your door
How I long to be inside
Speak voices that I can’t ignore
If you weren’t there for me I swear I would’ve died
Change is about to come
Hitchhiker, stick out your thumb
Get your light on, show your face
We’re going to a better place uhuh
How you want this ride to go?
Up and down til it overflows
Run your fingers through your blood
Stick your feet down in the mud
How you want this soul to fly?
Up and into a suffering sky
Shake your pelvis and your shoulder bones
Open your jaws, let out a moan
How you want this bird to sing?
Like a slight trombone or a velvet rain?
Fill you up til you explode
Send you running for your life down a cemetery road
Change is about to come
Hitchhiker, stick out your thumb
Get your light on, show your face
We’re going to a better place uhuh
(Feel warmth til the break of dawn)
How you want this ride to go?
Up and down, fast or slow?
Shake it til your heart gets weak
Til you can’t stand, til you can’t speak
No you here come this missile strike
Green on red, red on white
Let it show your black proton to shit
Step aside, we’re moving in
Change is about to come
Hitchhiker, stick out your thumb
Get your light on, show your face
We’re going to a better place uhuh
Hitchhiker, stick out your thumb
Hitchhiker, stick out your thumb
Hitchhiker, stick out your thumb
Hitchhiker, stick out your thumb
Open your jaws, let out a moan
Hitchhiker, stick out your thumb
Fill you up til you explode
Hitchhiker, stick out your thumb
Send you running for your life down a cemetery road
Hitchhiker, stick out your thumb
Shake it til your heart gets weak
Hitchhiker, stick out your thumb
Put on your boots, button up your coat
Put a thick wool scarf ‘round your throat
Put on your gloves, protect your hands
Now cast your eyes across the land
The wind is stronger than a grown man’s pride
The Mississippi river is a mile wide
Turn up the heat, just pick up speed
You can’t outrun the things you need
It’s in the trunk, it’s moving around
Put on the radio and drown out the sound
The current is fast, there’s no place to hide
Cold lightning cracks the sky
Sixteen stallions going by
No strength to stand, no will to fight
Every corner, every block
Rolling het, waves of shock
Til it kick you out of spot
I got kissed by Suzie Q
Left my balls black and blue
Eyes are black and turned white
Guess I lost my concentration
Guess my prayers were all in vain
It’s an ice-cold sensation
Your part’s pleasuring yea
Get ahead, you fall back
West bound train off the track
Touch cloud rolls to oppose the night
(Death by snakebite)
Finally you’re down to the river side
Water deep, black and white
Swim across, took you all your might
(Death by snakebite)
Guess I lost my concentration (lost my concentration)
Guess my prayers were all in vain (all in vain)
It’s an ice-cold sensation
Your part’s pleasuring yea
Clear as glass, pure as fire
Been adrift on my telephone wire
Keep it close, made to hold men tight
Death by snakebite
I don’t need no antidote
Just keep it warm with your over cold
I’m a little dizzy but I feel alright
Death by snakebite
Death by snakebite
Death by snakebite
Death by snakebite
Death by snakebite
Don’t be in the city
Don’t be in the city
Don’t be in the city when the sun goes down
The saints, they go looking for the higher ground
Can’t you hear the screaming tearing up the trees?
Oh the devil’s coming out of deep freeze
Oh my baby, won’t you take my hand?
There’s nothing I can tell you that you’ll understand
Throw away your pharaoh, it’s nothing but disease
Oh the devil’s coming out of deep freeze
Run run run just fast as you can go
Boat is in the river and it’s time to row
We’re sailing on the still water quick as please
Oh the devil’s coming out of deep freeze
Climb with your arms, climb til you can’t get higher
Rise with the heat ‘fore your blood turns into ice
Climb with your fingers til you reach that heaven and
fire
Lift yourself up, baby that’s my best advice
It’s stringing up the rigors, the faggots and the jews
They’re never out of victims, it’s getting hard to
choose
They pray for restoration down on their knees
Oh the devil’s coming out of deep freeze
Ask you for directions and get a man killed
The doctors digging graves just to get them refilled
The earth is made of fire, the moon is made of cheese
Oh the devil’s coming out of deep freeze
Climb with your arms, climb til you can’t get higher
Rise with the heat ‘fore your blood turns into ice
Climb with your fingers til you reach that heaven and
fire
Lift yourself up, baby that’s my best advice
The Hayman built a cannon just to get at the white
They’re tying down the pilgrims on a funeral pride
They cleansing them of sins, ridding them of flees
Oh the devil’s coming out of deep freeze
