i call the nearest hearing god, oh lift me on the wings of truth as the wheels on that ancient chariot come loose how could all this beauty come to be dashed against the rocks and collapsed upon by the sea pages in the wind place by place we disappear without a trace line by line this story's being lost in time place by place we disappear without a trace line by line, it's gone forever oh your stones, your ruined cities speak volumes in the silence i am destined to repeat no one will ever know me place by place we disappear without a trace line by line this story's being lost in time place by place we disappear without a trace line by line, it's gone forever

I heard the voice of the lord in the forest just before it got destroyed, I was floored, overjoyed, wanted more, andI could sing in the choir if the choir boys sang with a rhythm like that get back (get back) get back to where you once belonged. you can ditch the rest, but believe that this is true: I always believed in you. Oh we were slaves to the war, we were always keeping score, We were doomed to walk the night, afraid we'd wake and find we're crying for someone to say, "believe me, i love you, you need me, when you hurt yourself it grieves me, now change." you can ditch the rest, but believe that this is true: i always believe

i've been down to the depot and i balanced on the rails touched the coal to my lips and left notes wrote on the shale and who do you suppose would be the last ones to know oh the baker, the buried, and me so early you warned me you loved me and i got so much learning so quickly and so quickly i forgot but it's not too late, i hear the calling of the corn saying join what you learned here to the song of the lord oh be clear, be clear, see the light in my tears, i been waiting and waiting for your face to appear don't you rustle through the treetops, don't you whistle round my ears, call me down into the humus, to the soil i hold dear trouble, oh trouble, you were born with your hand on my heal lover, oh lover, do you really feel what i feel?

i went into a church the sign said United We Stand i went in to gather round jesus they were praying to Uncle Sam who i have been cursing all week as he is lording it over me "you ain't no god" i kept repeating. then here these folks disagree. jesus in the rubble of the temple jesus for insurrection to the chair i don't know who these folks were praying to, but i believed i was about to make a prayer. jesus, jesus, i have read that you said you were God. i don't know what you meant, but it seems to me if you are you came to remind us that in you we were born free.

when your last dollar falls out of your pocket and into the hands of the wrong you give and give and they take away and its been like this for too long you're feedin' them, feedin' them, while we just starve to the death we're feeding them when your last dime goes into the belly of one of these gluttonous pigs invested in a future with benefits for them while we fall for a sleeve full of tricks, you're feeding them. we're feeding them.

Take me out of these electric lights. I want to go around a fire all night. I want to whoop and I want to yell. I want to go where nobody’s gonna tell. Some things I dream in the middle of the day I wouldn’t say ‘em out loud, no way. I drive my car A to B, B to A. I swear, I’ll set that path on fire some day. I been dreamin’ about a free way, And a grace that might actually amaze. Take me out of these electric lights. I want to go around a fire all night. I want to whoop and I want to yell. I want to go where nobody’s gonna tell. I want to know that nobody’s gonna tell.
