Other Side

You’ve etched your dreams
All over my body
Whispered your secrets
Into my bones
Ran through my veins
Like a holy vessel
Confessionals that nobody knows
When I wake up with my soul on fire
And the eternal lighting a path I know
I will follow you into the darkness
Long as it’s you
Come to meet me at the other side
Wake up! Fire! Wake up, fire
You come to meet me at the other side
So bring old temptations,
Your sordid histories
They mean little to one like me
We’re threaded through
By invisible seams
Small the distance
Between you and me
When I wake up with my soul on fire
And the eternal lighting a path I know
I will follow you into the darkness
Long as it’s you
Come to meet me at the other side
Wake up! Fire! Wake up, fire!
You come to meet me at the other side
You come to meet me
At the other side

Take Me As I Am

I don’t want to be your plan b
While the flames get higher
I don’t want to sit here and wait
With my hands on fire
I want to know for sure
You’re in with me
It was never my intent
To keep you waiting
All the voices in my head
Kept urging patience
I didn’t want to hold you back,
Hold you back
I just never thought I
Could learn to jump so fearlessly
Take me as I am
Take me as I am
Oh take me as I am
I’m ready to, ready to take you
I know you’ve been burning up
For an answer
I don’t want to play these games
Or deceive you
I think that you deserve the world,
Deserve the world
But I’m only human-
Can you love me though I’m bound to let you down?
I would take uncertainty
A thousand times
Cause no one makes me feel like you--
You get me high
Who are we to stem the tide,
Stem the tide?
Between our bodies and our minds
There’s a truth we can’t deny
Take me as I am
Take me as I am
Oh take me as I am
I’m ready to, ready to take you

Death and Gold
04:21
|

|
From the skull
To the toe
Death, death
Dressed in gold
From the skull
Down to the toe
Death, death
Crowned in gold
Time care not
For dusty bones
Rusting sockets,
Empty thrones
Keep the time-
Gems and stones
Come before us,
Here when we’re gone
He won’t speak
But they’ll know-
King and poor man,
Both called home

Treat A Stranger Right

Everybody ought to treat a stranger right
Long way from home.
Everybody ought to treat a stranger right
A long way from home.
Well, all of us here are strangers
None of us have no home,
Don't never hurt your brother
And cause him to fool his own (???)
Careful of how you treat a stranger
Careful how you turn him away,
(???)
Will turn him from your gate.
(???)
Be careful how you go along,
You must always treat a stranger right
Always serve him in your home.
Everybody ought to treat a stranger right
Long way from home.
Everybody ought to treat a stranger right
A long way from home
