Carbon Ribs |
A thousand pairs of fiery eyes |
Burn like the serpent |
Down the hwy 5 |
As the long amber tail |
Of los angeles unwinds |
I’ve got resurrection |
Down inside my skin |
But for all my revelating |
I just can’t make sense |
Of this gravity we’re in Cause I’m a dead man now |
With a ghost who lives |
Within the confines of These carbon ribs |
And one day |
When I’m free I will sit |
The cripple at your table |
The cripple by your side |
A thousand miles |
Of pain I’m sure |
Led you to the threshold |
Of my heart’s screen door |
To tell me what it is I’m dying for |
Gravity comes |
Like a cold cold rain |
To lead me to the rope again |
But someone is standing |
In my place |
Cause I’m a dead man now |
With a ghost who lives |
Within the confines of These carbon ribs |
And one day |
When I’m free I will sit |
The cripple at your table |
The cripple by your side |
And I sit beside you |
And I sit beside you |
