|
The tents go up as I go down |
|
Down to the flats and into the sound |
|
The closer i get to the city |
|
The further i am from memory |
|
In the green grass looking up |
|
For the words of the angry sun |
|
'No one', when he says 'no one' |
|
Yeah, he means 'no one', no one |
|
No one will survive |
|
Ash Wednesday alive |
|
No soldier, no lover |
|
No father, no mother |
|
Not a lonely child |
|
In the up and in the bedroom |
|
A black and white of the bride and the groon |
|
Will bring me to my knees |
|
With the colorized bad dream |
|
That takes its place on Ash Wednesday |
|
White noise and love |
|
Will be my only drug |
|
On that day nine, suns away |
|
From that sad, sad Saturday |
|
When fire my friend |
|
Fire my villian |
|
You take away yesterday |
|
To give to me today |
|
When nothing's free, no now it's Ash Wednesday |
|
So each day is Ash Wednesday |
|
All this life is Ash Wednesday |
|
All the doors are shut |
|
And the windows barely opened up |
|
The fire's all around |
|
It's the ending of the drought |
|
And we are ready now |
|
For tear gas clouds |
|
On my mind, come on fill the house |
|
Finally and weep |
|
For it's king and queen sleep |
|
Both now in the arms of Ash Wednesday |
|
Ash Wednesday |
