lyrics

you can do anything with this
well if not i don't blame you
i'm all over the pavement
and here's the remainder

black crow yellow sky
red-eyed raven telegraph line
your rabbit's foot got left behind
and here's the remainder

i'm breaking down i'm breaking down
i thank God there's no one around
to see me when i get like this
don't tell a soul about my predicament
don't tell a soul about my predicament

yes i've got no credentials
falsified my reports
altered my appearance
in the passport

your honor this leg is hard to stand on
it's been giving me nothing but grief
yes i dwell in this wreckage
but the rent is cheap

earth and sky will soon wear out
Your words will not decay
yeah You come with glorious shout
and tears be wiped away

thought i killed the sin of pride
hundred rounds i must have spent
everywhere i turn my eyes
i'm all over the pavement

it whispers from the furnace
offers a disclaimer
justifies every falsehood
and hands you the remainder
