Penance Fire Blues

Bobby Long

I see papers and papers
Stacked up in formation
Which mean much before
They're lined in the fire


As a bottomless heat goes
To harness your anger
Your blood and
Your deepest desire


Because there's no truth stolen
That's been ever brought forward
From the minds of the rioters
Looking face down on the gutter


Cause this world's full of thinkers
And suffragette speakers
Who deny that they ever wear a dress
Oh this god forsaken town's in a mess


And all the truths we let out loose
Is desperate to amuse
As it grabs you by the throat
And strings out all the times you've used


But now you don't belong
Whisper when you speak
You turn yourself to nighttime
Trying to find your feet


Oh let me run lord (lord lord lord)
Run lord, let me run
So let me run lord (lord lord lord)
Run lord, let me run


But as the morning awakens
That light sends a shudder
Twist of hope that held you down
Is left to rest and stir


You back down a hallway
To flourish the darkness
And you fool yourself
You did it all for her
And him, and her


And all the truths we let out loose
Is desperate to amuse
As it grabs you by the throat
And strings out all the times you've used


But now you don't belong
Whisper when you speak
You turn yourself to nighttime
Trying to find your feet
Trying to find your feet now


Run lord (lord lord lord)
Run lord, let me run
Oh let me run lord (lord lord lord)
Run lord, let me run


Seen your face before
Rich boy playing poor
Ravaging the whores
Ignoring constant calls


Now you don't belong
Whisper when you speak
You turn yourself to nighttime
Trying to find your feet


Run lord (lord lord lord)
Run lord, let me run
Let me run lord (lord lord lord)
Run lord, let me run
Run lord (lord lord lord)
Run lord, let me run
