Dreams stripped down beyond firelight I would go over but my only coat's off-white And seein' 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 still of blood we sing and burn A thousand blackbirds on a string return There's a solitary sun to lie Gone without the chosen one, goodbye Ashes scatter Burning Jacob's ladder I'm afraid I might fade away Rage untethered A soulless stormy desert I'm I'm afraid I might fade away
