lyrics

I wanna be your Ricky Fitts
I wanna make you a non-believer
blow out the candle of your youth at last
there is a moon in your mother’s eyes
reflecting light from a bright beginning
but paling in the wake of troubled days

I wanna run a razor through the shell
the chrysalis of a life imagined
as wingless in the corner of a room
they drove a needle through his breathless lips
they stitched them shut but I can still hear his voice
in moments when all time is ground to dust
in an alternative stream of time
he’s still alive I was only dreaming
and everything I wanted to say was said

you can’t forgive her
you won’t forgive yourself
look at each other
three broken golden bells
put away all of
her ancient childhood spells
reach out and touch her
it’s not a dream you know
she won’t always be there

only forgiveness
only forgiveness
only forgiveness
tonight
out of the dark
the light
