Well, won't you lend your lungs to me?
 Mine are collapsin'
 Plant my feet and bitterly breathe
 Up the time that's passin'

Breath I'll take and breath I'll give
 And pray the day is not poisoned
 Stand among the ones that live
 In lonely indecision

Well, fingers walk the darkness down
 Mind is on the midnight
 Gather up the gold you've found
 You fool it's only moonlight

If you try to take it home
 Your hands will turn to butter
 You better leave this dream alone
 Try to find another

Salvation sat and crossed herself
 Called the devil partner
 Wisdom burned upon a shelf
 Who'll kill the raging cancer

Seal the river at its mouth
 Take the water prisoner
 Fill the sky with screams and cries
 Bathe in fiery answers

Well, Jesus was an only son
 And love his only concept
 The strangers cry in foreign tongues
 And dirty up the doorstep

And I for one, and you for two
 Ain't got the time for outside
 Keep your injured looks to you
 We'll tell the world that we tried
