Stormy Tale 03:00

I woke up this morning and called out your name But I knew you'd been gone for weeks Won't someone carry this poor body home Paradise Ranch ain't the same without you Paradise Ranch ain't the same Lonely desert burns to the depths of my soul My skin is cracked, naked and dry The rising wind blows through my memory and pain The sun-soaked highway crosses my front door The streets are all empty in town I promise when I leave here I never will return

Let me in on your little secrets Fill me in on all the sordid details You’ve got the good stuff, lay your trip on me But just for a moment, then it’s my turn to tell I heard the word never is something that we shouldn’t say I wouldn’t begin to presume that it’s always this way As much as we try to conceal the cracks in our cast-iron souls All the dirt clods keep making more holes And so here’s more food for us now for the thinking I think and therefore I must consume And what of the resources that we’ll been drinking There’s not enough booze in the whole world to shut out the gloom I heard the word never is something that we shouldn’t say I wouldn’t begin to presume that it’s always this way As much as we try to conceal the cracks in our cast-iron souls All these dirt clods keep making more holes The raven did say nevermore, according to Poe That was just some bird-brained joke, cause here we go Just when we thought we saw daylight The rain turned to snow But the son of all seasons will free us despite what we think we know
