[00:07.89]
[00:21.18]Well, won't you lend your lungs to me?
[00:24.14]Mine are collapsing
[00:26.49]Plant my feet and bitterly breathe
[00:29.17]Up the time that's passing.
[00:31.63]Breath I'll take and breath I'll give
[00:34.27]Pray the day ain't poison
[00:37.23]Stand among the ones that live
[00:39.61]In lonely indecision.
[00:42.12]
[00:45.55]Fingers walk the darkness down
[00:47.87]Mind is on the midnight
[00:50.86]Gather up the gold you've found
[00:53.58]You fool, it's only moonlight.
[00:56.35]If you try to take it home
[00:58.86]Your hands will turn to butter
[01:01.50]You better leave this dream alone
[01:04.13]Try to find another.
[01:06.48]
[01:10.33]Salvation sat and crossed herself
[01:13.27]Called the devil partner
[01:15.95]Wisdom burned upon a shelf
[01:18.51]Who'll kill the raging cancer
[01:21.12]Seal the river at its mouth
[01:23.74]Take the water prisoner
[01:26.27]Fill the sky with screams and cries
[01:28.98]Bathe in fiery answers
[01:47.31]
[01:51.06]Jesus was an only son
[01:53.83]And love his only concept
[01:56.28]Strangers cry in foreign tongues
[01:58.92]And dirty up the doorstep
[02:01.83]And I for one, and you for two
[02:04.00]Ain't got the time for outside
[02:06.78]Just keep your injured looks to you
[02:09.31]We'll tell the world we tried
[02:15.28]

Steve Earle - Lungs
Well, won't you lend your lungs to me?
Mine are collapsing
Plant my feet and bitterly breathe
Up the time that's passing.
Breath I'll take and breath I'll give
Pray the day ain't poison
Stand among the ones that live
In lonely indecision.
Fingers walk the darkness down
Mind is on the midnight
Gather up the gold you've found
You fool, it's only moonlight.
If you try to take it home
Your hands will turn to butter
You better leave this dream alone
Try to find another.
Salvation sat and crossed herself
Called the devil partner
Wisdom burned upon a shelf
Who'll kill the raging cancer
Seal the river at its mouth
Take the water prisoner
Fill the sky with screams and cries
Bathe in fiery answers
Jesus was an only son
And love his only concept
Strangers cry in foreign tongues
And dirty up the doorstep
And I for one, and you for two
Ain't got the time for outside
Just keep your injured looks to you
We'll tell the world we tried
