IN YOUR MIND
*In your mind, in your mind
One foot on Jacob's ladder
And one foot in the fire
And it all goes down in your mind
Living at the bottom of the stairs in your life
Never a smile knocking on your door
The air is blue and so are you
Prehistoric monsters on the floor
Last verse of your last sont
And God don't hear dead men
The end of the line is in your mind
And you'll be staying in
In your mind, in your mind
Bone for bone and skin for skin
Eye for eye and tooth for tooth
Heart for heart and soul for soul
Somebody said what is true
Lock it up and close it down
The sound of morning like a dove
High beyond the rattle and roar
Look into the face of love
(Repeat *)
In your mind, in your mind
Sunday words are back again
And you'll eat your fun of the middlemas pie
But just a piece you understand
You'll get the rest up in the sky
Praise and glory, wounded angel
Shuffling round the room
Eternity is down the hall
And you sit there bending spoons
In your mind, in your mind
Father, son and holy ghost
Sacrificial drops the pain
On a silver planet cross
Sanctification on a chain
They say redemption draws knives
Storms of silence from above
Stop your ears close your eyes
Try to find the face of love
(Repeat *)
THE LONG ROAD
and i wished for so long, cannot stay
all the precious moments, cannot stay
it's not like wings have fallen, cannot stay
but still something's missing, cannot say
holding hands of daughters and sons
and their faiths are falling down
i have wished for so long
how i wish for you today
will i walk the long road? cannot stay
there's no need to say goodbye
all the friends and family
all the memories going round
i have wished for so long
how i wish for you today
and the wind keeps rollin'
and the sky keeps turning gray
and the sun is set
the sun will rise another day
i have wished for so long
how i wish for you today
i have wished for so long
how i wish for you today
will I walk the long road?
we all walk the long road
PROMISES
Promises given
And promises broken
Words stain my lips
Just like blood on my hands
And words are like poison
That sinks down inside you
And some things you do
You just don't understand
I offer no reason
I ask for no pity
I make no excuse
For the way that I am
And words are like poison
That sinks down inside you
And some things you do
You just don't understand
I God is my witness
Then God is my savior
But if you are my judge
Then I'm already damned
And words are like poison
That sinks down inside you
And some things you do
You just don't understand
And would if my fingers
To cut off and give you
Could gain my redemption
I'd cut off my hands
But words are like poison
That bends you and blinds you
And some things you do
You just don't understand
So this is my story
And I hope that it finds you
For your sweet attention
I cannot demand
And words are like poison
That lives down inside you
And some things you do
You just don't understand
WOMAN ON THE TIER (I'll See You Through)
Too hot. No air.
Loud fan and a big tin can.
Wait here. Steer clear.
They've gone to get your man.
10 AM.
Through gate 3 with picture ID.
This old billfold
Experiences security.
I hear the click. These men are hard.
I'll see your face through bar and guard.
You're new to me. I'm new to you.
I see your fate. I'll see you
You through.
Ice within.
And it's all cement in the government.
Approved? Then move
To the plywood booth where the prisoner's sent.
You read in red
The letters on the door and you know what they're for.
You feel unreal.
And the rattling chain's coming over the floor.
I hear the clock. These walls are green.
I see your face through tin and screen.
You're new to me. I'm new to you.
I see your fate. I'll see you
You through.
Too hot. No air.
Loud fan and a big tin can.
Wait here. Steer clear.
They've gone to get your man.
THE FALL OF TROY
It's the same with men as with horses and dogs
Nothing wants to die
Evelyn? James they killed in a game
with guns too big for their hands
just off St. Charles in No-Mans Land
and you'll have to find your own way home.
Boys, you'll have to find your own way home.
The oldest was Troy, an eighteen year-old boy
Shot dead in March during a robbery
his brother started out to hell and to ruin
Troy's killer was never caught they say.
Young nick he just went bad that day
Now he'll have to find his own way home.
Boys, he'll have to find his own way home.
Why cook dinner?
Why make my bed?
Why come home at all?
Out the door and through the woods
There is a world where nothing grows
It's hard to say grace and to sit in the place
Of someone missing at the table
Mom's hair sprayed? tight
And her face in her hands
Watching TV for answers to me
After all she's only human
And she's trying to find her own way home.
Boys, she's trying to find her own way home.
My legs ache
My heart is sore
The well is full of pennies.
QUALITY OF MERCY
All you hypocrites and liars
In the temple seeking gain
All you senators and lawyers
With your motives to explain
All you victims and you heroes
Your petitions to complain
All you murderers and martyrs
On the fields where you lay slain
On the just and unjust
Alike it doth rain
And the quality of mercy is not strained
Yes vengeance and revenge
Are just two words for pain
And the quality of mercy is not strained
Did not I crucify my Lord?
Did not I bind Him in chains?
Did not I three times betray Him?
Three times deny His name?
Did not I cast the first stone?
Then justify the blame?
Did not He die for my sins
But never would I do the same?
Oh I've been three times a sinner
And two times a saint
And the quality of mercy is not strained
Yes for Love if it's Love
Is changing but unchanged
And the quality of mercy is not strained
Hypocrites and liars
Senators and lawyers
Victims and heroes
Murderers and martyrs
Crucify my Lord
Bind Him in chains
Three times betray Him
Justify the blame
On the just and unjust
Alike it doth rain
And the quality of mercy is not strained
DEAD MAN WALKING
There's a pale horse comin
And I'm gonna ride it
I'll rise in the mornin
With my fate beside it
I'm a dead man walkin
I'm a dead man walkin
In Saint James Parish
I was born and Christened
How I got my story
Mister, there ain't no need for you to listen
It's just a dead man talkin
Bridge: I had a job, I had a girl
But between our dreams and actions lie this world
In the deep forest
Their blood and tears rushed over me
All I could feel was the drugs and shotgun
And my fear up inside me
Like a dead man talkin (walkin ?)
Bridge: Neath the summer sky my eyes went black
Sister, I won't ask for forgiveness, my sins are all I have
Now the clouds above my prison
Move slowly cross the sky
There's a new day comin
And my dreams are full tonight.
WALK AWAY
Dot King was whittled from the bone of Cain
with a little drop of poison in the red, red blood
She need a way to turn around the bend
She said I want to walk away and start over again.
There are things I've done I can't erase
I want to look in the mirror, see another face
I said never would I do it again
I want to walk away, start over again.
No more rain
No more roses
On my way, shake my thirst in a cool, cool pond.
There is a (widower/whittler/winner) in every place
There is a heart that's beating in every page
The beginning of it starts at the end
When it's time to walk away and start over again.
Weather is murder at a hundred and three
William Ray shot Corabell Lee
A yellow dog knows when he has sinned
You want to walk away and start over again.
No more rain
No more roses
On my way, shaking my thirst in a cool cool pond.
Cooper told Maui the whole block is gone
They're dying for jewelry, money, and clothes
I always get out of the trouble I'm in
I want to walk away, start over again.
I left my bible by the side of the road
Carve my initials in an old dead tree
I'm going away but I'm going to be back when
It's time to walk away and start over again.
ELLIS UNIT ONE
I was fresh out of the service
It was back in ‘82
I raised some Cain when I come back to town
I left to be all I could be
Come home without a clue
Now, I married Dawn and had to settle down
So I hired on at the prison
Guess I always knew I would
Just like my dad and both my uncles done
And I worked on every cell block
Now, things're goin' good
But then they transferred me to Ellis Unit One
Swing low
Swing low
Swing low and carry me home
Well, my daddy used to talk about them long nights at the walls
And how they used to strap ‘em in the chair
The kids down from the college and they'd bring their beer ‘n all
‘N when the lights went out, a cheer rose in the air
Well, folks just got too civilized
Sparky's gatherin' dust
‘Cause no one wants to touch a smokin' gun
And since they got the injection
They don't mind as much, I guess
They just put ‘em down at Ellis Unit One
Swing low
Swing low
Swing low and carry me home
Well, I've seen ‘em fight like lions, boys
I've seen 'em go like lambs
And I've helped to drag ‘em when they could not stand
And I've heard their mamas cryin' when they heard that big door slam
And I've seen the victim's family holdin' hands
Last night I dreamed that I woke up with straps across my chest
And something cold and black pullin' through my lungs
‘N even Jesus couldn't save me though I know he did his best
But he don't live on Ellis Unit One
Swing low
Swing low
Swing low and carry me home
Swing low
Don't let go
Swing low and carry me home
