Ain't no altars on this long and lonesome road
It was gravity which pulled us down and destiny which broke us apart
God is in heaven;
And we all want what's his;
But power and greed and corruptible seed;
Seem to be all that there is
This wheel shall explode!
But is your heart made out of stone, or is it lime;
Or is it just solid rock?
And then you told me later, as I apologized;
That you were just kiddin' me, you weren't really from the farm
I'm just sitting here beating on my trumpet
We sat in an empty theater and we kissed,;
I asked ya please to cross me off-a your list.
Idiot wind, blowing through the buttons of our coats,;
Blowing through the letters that we wrote.
Everybody's doin' something,;
I heard it in a dream,;
But when there's too much of nothing,;
It just makes a fella mean.
All I feel is heat and flame and all I see are dark eyes.
Man's ego is inflated, his laws are outdated, they don't apply no more
If I could only turn back the clock to when God and her were born
Time is all I have to give
Oh, man has invented his doom, First step was touching the moon.
People are crazy and times are strange
Don't trust me to show you beauty;
When beauty may only turn to rust.
I can still hear the sounds of those Methodist bells;
I'd taken the cure and had just gotten through
Everybody's wearing a disguise;
To hide what they've got left behind their eyes
Well, You've done it all and there's no more anyone can pretend to do.;
What can I do for You?
I need a steam shovel mama to keep away the dead
Have I surrendered to the will of God;
Or am I still acting like the boss?
Your magnetic movements;
Still capture the minutes I'm in.
When they came for Him in the garden, did they know?
Leaving men wholly, totally free;
To do anything they wish to do but die
if every bone in his body was broken he would never admit it
If you want to live easy
Baby pack your clothes with mine
You cast your spell and I went under,;
I find it so difficult to leave.
The sky is erupting, I must go where it's quiet.
