Riding you down Up the back stairs Skip a line, walking wound of mine As big as your fist Who gave you such a heart Such a heart as this
Spread out on the ground Corsicana clip 'Corcicana slip All around yours lips The spool has spun unwound
In the hollow of His hand Delicate listener, My tethered giver My burning lamp stand
Oh I must be off, off your rock I set my teeth... in spite of hand I've got a chalk-man's chance To bed him down To stop his clock
Be a proverb to me Quiet like a feather 700 pound hold buck-reign tight Just as dangerous With my free hand tonight.
From a slag of iron all drawn out, all such animals do sound The ball-room bell found stove in gutted down
From the hollow of His hand Delicate listener My tethered giver Mercy the demand My burning lamplight stand
I leave her the looking through I leave her in the far fetched window Clean liver Right believer baby You know that He is near He has set His golden face Hey, cold shoulder Hey bread winner Whistful in my ear Cold shoulder In the far fetched window
High above the praises of the people High above the praises of the people Unapproachable light! Unapproachable light! Come here! Come here!
