Dreams stripped down beyond firelight I would go over but my only coat’s soft white And seeing things unreal God knows what that stain And what comes crawling back again Tears a harbor Down to the thorny altar I’m afraid i might fade away It’s to the blood we sing and burn Thousand blackbirds on a string return There’s a solitary sun too high Gone without the chosen one, goodbye The ashes scatter Burning jacob’s ladder I’m afraid i might fade away Rage untethered The soul a stony desert I’m afraid i might fade away
