Thunderstorm and a rain of pouring
Passed it all just to get to you
Wa ters rising to the ceiling
You're gonna give your blood to me
A year in jail and a year of labor
No one ever gonna touch me again
My safeties are just mine
I might take the road of sin
An d if I take the road less traveled
Run it hard and I run it true
Runnin' till your souls are bleedin'
I'm gonna give my love to you
Ba bies are born in a fiery mountain
Take a sip of poison, burn
Give me my hand, the dollar's worth
See my brother's hand, the twenty
See my sister's husband cry
See my mother's laughter emptier
Since the day my daddy died
When the land all turns to sea?
Gather up your tides of offerings
You're gonna give your love to me
Some have said it's suicidal,
some have said it's going blind
Some are talking about the future,
some about the end of time
Talk this dark and stormy man,
let your heart be warm and true
You're the one that gives your mercy
from this deep and distant blue
Call her when you're good and ready,
let the gnomes on river run
Let your hand be calm and steady
When you shoot that fire gun
When you shoot that fire gun
When you shoot that fire gun
Thunderstorm and a rain of pouring
I passed it all just to get to you
Water 's rising to the ceiling
Old man, help me drown in
You're gonna give your all to me
