Psalms 40:2 |
Pulled off the highway in Missouri and lo, our hearts were heavy laden |
Made for the chapel with some spray paint for all the things we’d held in secret |
Lord, lift up these lifeless bones |
Light cascading through the windows, all the rainbow’s heavy tones |
He has fixed his sign in the sky |
He has raised me from the pit and set me high |
Left that place in ruin, drunk on the spirit and high on fumes |
Checked into a Red Roof Inn, stayed up for several hours and then slept like |
infants |
In the burning fuselage of my days |
Let my mouth be ever fresh with praise |
He has fixed his sign in the sky |
He has raised me from the pit and set me high |
Each morning new |
Each day shot through |
With all the sharp, small shards of shrapnel |
That seem to burst out of me and you |
Head down for Kansas, we will get there when we get there, don’t you worry |
Feel bad about the things we do along the way, but not really that bad |
We inhaled the frozen air |
Lord, send me a mechanic if I’m not beyond repair |
He has fixed his sign in the sky |
He has raised me from the pit and he will set me high |
