Dust. Screaming Trees.




1. Halo of ashes.

She wears a halo of ashes, spectre on the wind, waits on me so patiently, I no longer can pretend, sky lies a thousand mile below, stars shine and the moon is clear, with nothing I can only warn, won't you be left near here. I been a long, long time away with one foot in the grave, glorified in the dying of the sun.

My angel pulls me closer as my poison she crawls thru, walks with me so silently I no longer can refuse, tomorrow my thousand miles behind, starshine and the moon below, wake me where you find me. pretend you don't know. I been a long, long time away with one foot in the grave, glorified in the dying of the sun.

She wears a halo of ashes, spectre on the wind, waits on me so patiently, I no longer can pretend, tomorrow my thousand miles behind, face painted in the moon below, wake me where you find me, pretend you don't know. I been a long, long time away with one foot in the grave, glorified in the dying of the sun, I been a long, long time away with one foot in the grave, glorified in the dying of the sun.


2. All I know.

Bite the thorn that pierce the skin, come back down to earth again, the cold is creeping deep inside, you disconnect the telephone line. Gotta get away, gotta get away, get away, gotta get away before the Lord gonna make me stay, all that I know should have been, could have been mine.

I killed the last way out of this, persuaded by a deceitful kiss. That said you better stay, said you better stay, better stay, said you better stay, before it's all gone, gone away, all that I know should have been, could have been mine, all that I know should have been, could have been mine.

Bite the thorn that pierce the skin, come back down to earth again, the cold is creeping deep inside, you disconnect the telephone line. Gotta get away, gotta get away, get away, gotta get away before I lose my mind, said you better stay, said you better stay, better stay, said you better stay, before it's all gone, gone away, all that I know should have been, could have been mine…


3. Look at you.

Her ghost hides in my mind, in the night, in a way she's haunting me, I'm wanting her still, thru rose colored skies or blue, blue moonlight, there's miracles on high, she's walking by. When I look at you I've got a second chance, really need to have you now, one by one they fall, it always breaks me down.

The quiet cuts me thru, the candle burnt, the knife has turned, the pain withers alive, I know deep inside. When I look at you I've got a second chance, really need to have you now, one by one they fall, it always breaks me down. One by one they fall, it always breaks me down, one by one, it always breaks me down.

4. Dying days.

All these dying days I walk the ghost town, used to be my city, I seen a holy man, seen him crying with the Mother Mary, all these dying days.

Yes, it's too late, this life isn't mine, Lord, hear me pray, can you ease my mind, now they're gone forever, Jesus I done gone over, sleeping alone you stay on your side, if I couldn't lie like all of a thousand other times, I wouldn't be on this highway, taken on down this highway.

All these dying days I walk the ghost town, used to be my city, I seen a holy man, seen him crying with the Mother Mary, all these dying days. All these dying days I walk the ghost town, used to be my city, I seen a holy man, seen him crying with the Mother Mary, all these dying days.

Yes, it's too late, this life isn't mine, Lord, don’t you hear me pray, can you ease my mind, waiting for the sunshine, waiting for the sunshine. All these dying days I walk the ghost town, used to be my city, I seen a holy man, seen him crying with the Mother Mary, all these dying days.


5. Make my mind.

Take a minute just to breathe, take a minute 'till I'm wide awake and I'm searchin' once again, nd the sun has left the sky, and you're on my mind, and you're on my mind.

Take a second to believe, just a second you won't have to wait, don't you turn your back on me, I couldn't look into your eyes and I don't know why, and I don't know why but I'll try again on another day. You make my mind, just wanna leave this world behind, you make my mind, you make my mind.

Let the silence creep in, let the silence creep in, in the silence I'm awake all night, just searchin' once again, searchin' once again, well could, I reach you in the morning light if I closed my eyes, if I closed my eyes, well you're here right away. You make my mind, just wanna leave this world behind, you make my mind, you make my mind. You're on my mind, I'll try again on another day.

And I don't know why, and I don't know why, if I close my eyes, if I close my eyes, well you're here right away. You make my mind, just wanna leave this world behind, you make my mind, you make my mind…


6. Sworn and broken.

Winter's setting in again and it feels like the end is near. sensless sense and I'm alone watchin' the seconds passin' by, come January, I swear this world won't be the one that we once lived on, took an oath for a promise sworn and broken, all that's gone away.

When Monday morning you can't wake up, still dreamin' of what could've been, something good has gone and left you, it's another tear, one won't deny, come January, I swear this world won't be the one that we once lived on, took an oath, another promise sworn and broken, all that's gone, all that's gone before you've changed.

Well Monday morning you don't wake up, still dreamin' of what could've been, something good has gone and left you, it's another tear, one more denial, come January, I swear this world won't be the one that we once lived on, took an oath, another promise sworn and broken, all that's gone, all that's gone before, all that's gone before has changed.


7. Witness.

It's taken everything, everything I got and it's hung me on the line, water rising up over me and I think I'm gonna die, think I'm gonna die. I told a lie, that's what I said, I told the one you know I'll always keep, whose God is mine, whose God is mine, whose God is mine, whose God is the one with the witness. Shine your lonely light on me, I'll be there to hold the mirror, I can take you down with me, show you lonely, lonely, lonely.

Death wastes no time, it seems, and it's hung me on the line, hung me on the line, hard rain fallin' all over me and I think I'm gonna die, think I'm gonna die. I told a lie, that's what I said, I told the one you know I'll always keep, whose God is mine, whose God is mine, whose God is mine, whose God is the one with the witness. Shine your lonely light on me, I'll be there to hold the mirror, I can take you down with me, show you lonely, lonely, lonely.

I told a lie, that's what I said, I told the one you know I'll always keep, whose God is mine, whose God is mine, whose God is mine, whose God is the one with the witness. Shine your lonely light on me, I'll be there to hold the mirror, I can take you down with me, show you lonely, lonely, lonely, shine your lonely light on me, I'll be there to hold the mirror, I can take you down with me, show you lonely, lonely, lonely.


8. Traveler.

It's a broken morning outside, go easy on my mind, 'cause you're this dream I’m hangin' on and I’m tryin' to meet the dawn, and the longest way I traveled from the darkness to the light, Lord, it's been a million miles in these prisons I can't abide. I'm half way here, I’m half way there, I'm half way here, I’m half way there, I'm half way here, I’m half way there, all along I've been the traveler.

Forever outta time, forever just unwinds, I see the green beyond the blue and I’m tryin' to make it thru, and the longest way I traveled from the darkness to the light, Lord, it seems a million miles, all my brothers I can't unbind. I'm half way here, I’m half way there, I'm half way here, I’m half way there, I'm half way here, I’m half way there, all along I've been the traveler.

It's why the world is cold, go easy on my soul, 'cause you're this dream I’m hangin' on and I’m tryin' to meet the dawn, and the longest way I traveled from the darkness to the light, Lord, it's been a million miles in these prisons I can't abide. I'm half way here, I’m half way there… all along I've been the traveler...


9. Dime western.

Born to work under the way your velvet lies, smoke unfolding hazy in the sky arise, I've been where you never been, I've seen what you've never seen, I've dreamed what you've never dreamed, I've left what you'd never leave but now I can only find one way, take me higher.

Rays of shattered light to bleed my eyes, the spark has burned away until I’m blind inside, I've seen what you've never seen, I've been where you never been, I've dreamed what you've never dreamed, I've left what you'd never leave but now I can only find one way, take me higher.

There's only your reflection left to hide, once you know the aim I call you is still mine, I've seen what you've never seen, I've been where you never been, I've left what you'd never leave, I've dreamed what you've never dreamed but now I can only find one way, take me higher, but now I can only find one way, take me higher, take me higher, take me higher.


10. Gospel plow.

If you wanna get to heaven let me tell you how, keep your hand on the gospel plow, hold on, hold on, hold on. Mary had a golden chain, every link spelled Jesus' name, hold on, hold on, hold on. Mary had a golden chain, hold on, if you wanna get to heaven let me tell you how, keep your hand on the gospel plow.

Wakin' up without you, now I’m on my own, comin' down the sky burns into my soul and I wanna know that you're mine, I gotta know you're mine. Come on back tomorrow said you'll be all right, I'll never find the way, now, to kill the time, and I wanna know what's in your mind, I gotta know you're mine.

And I fell alone, and my dreams are torn, you're not at all, not at all, not at all, who you say you are, gotta know, gotta know, gotta know where you're going.

Wakin' up without you, girl, now I’m on my own, comin' down the sky burns into my soul and I wanna know that you're mine, I gotta know you're mine. And I fell alone, and my dreams are torn, you're not at all, not at all, not at all, who you say you are, gotta know, gotta know, gotta know where you're going.
