So find a river and deliver my remains to it soon

This I request of you

Said a person that I knew from my sleep

The thing you ache with has a function, either beat it or bleed

What could I say to them

G# B
Man on fire, and he's heading for Throop

Watched him burning as I sat on my stoop

A couple seconds felt like hours 'til I finally moved

To beat the flames from him

Most religion is as far from faith

When I'm away from you

Like my mother she reminds

With the ashes on her head

Dancing drunkly to the radio as she welcomes back the dead

Verse 6 :

Twenty hours and I'm twelve in the hole
E C#7
With thoughts of lightning as a beautiful doll

Across the island they are floating slow in luminous bulbs
C#m
Inviting me to cross
Verse 7 :
G# B
Started drinking to meet strangers and folks
E C#7
Who'd listen to me, who'd nod when I spoke

But these days when I'm thirsty I don't mind staying home
C#m
Drinking away the blues
Verse 8 :
G# B
Started smoking to keep up with my friends

But I'm a lonely lighthouse shining by the sea on a cliff

Dragging in solitude

Of all the pieces I've combined
