Mystic
(专辑: From The Top Of Willamette Mountain - 2012)
There is a
mystic in the
mountain high above the
Great Salt Lake He's dancing in the
heaven far below his golden gates He's looking at our cars below And laughing at our rock and roll So I
found a
little woman, thought that I
could change her name She had the
colour of the
city and the
fire of the
country flame So I
hid my body down below, hoping that my skin won't show A
mystic from the
mountain and in the
end what did you say we'd find A
promise from a
pamphlet, a
crucifixion on your highway sign But I
sold you for a
cigarette, does it make you want to love me less And if I
don't believe. What does that mean? And when I
die alone, who will eat my soul In the
cave of God, while the
angels watch There's a
manic scream, hallelujah Babe I
know I
lost you, the
moment you could finally see The
part of me I'd hidden, far below our leather seats If I
could make you understand the
empty that I
tried to fill I'd crucify my body, leave the
pieces at your mystics heels But I
sold you for a
cigarette Hope you'd sell me off for less And if we don't agree What does that leave And when you die alone I
will eat your soul In the
cave of God While the
angels watch There's a
manic scream hallelujah
