|
Black birds send bullet holes |
|
Scattered across the sky |
|
I wander |
|
These steep hills |
|
Into the grey light. |
|
My fingers collapse around my pen |
|
Like soldiers tryin' to hold up the flag |
|
I'm callin' out, once again |
|
In this letter to you my friend |
|
In this letter to you my friend |
|
In this letter to you my friend |
|
And don't tell me you been comin' up easy |
|
Stop, drop, you're life is greasy |
|
You used to say that you would come around |
|
Oh baby, but you're never here |
|
You have been |
|
Up above (so high so high so high) |
|
And lived, in the dirt |
|
You have felt |
|
Some love |
|
And you |
|
Have been hurt |
|
Well I've gone to shorten my road |
|
With a fistful of matches, but nothin' to strike (nothin' to strike) |
|
And as we walk along the cove |
|
You will know that this is right |
|
You may think I'm crazy |
|
You may think I'm foolish |
|
But I'm coming through the lightening |
|
Comin' back to you |
|
Don't tell me you been comin' up easy |
|
Stop, drop, you're life is greasy |
|
You used to say that you would come around |
|
But you're never here |
|
You have been |
|
Up above (so high so high so high) |
|
And lived, in the dirt |
|
You have felt |
|
Some love |
|
And you |
|
Have been hurt |
|
Oh my my my my my my my |
|
I'm feelin' fine |
|
Oh my my my my my my my |
|
I'm comin' through |
|
Oh my my my my my my my |
|
Oh my my my oh my |
|
You have been |
|
Up above so high so high so high |
|
And lived, in the dirt |
|
You have felt |
|
Some love |
|
And you |
|
Have been hurt |
|
Oh you have been, you have been |
|
Up above, up above |
|
And you've lived, and you've lived, in the dirt, in the dirt |
|
Oh you have felt you have felt |
|
Some love, oh some love |
|
And you, you have |
|
Been hurt |
|
You have been up above |
