And You 06:10
And You The scent of lemon lozenges The sawdusty junk drawer The after-shower baby powder Sprinkled on the floor The frosted grass through clouded glass The autumn getting old Your morning jog out in the fog Your sweat mixed with the cold After school bible study, choir's in rehearsal Diesel fuel, the yellow band of light Across your temple and eyes The goof's got on his brights So you pull off to the side Let him pass right on by And ease back on the street The scent of coconut sunscreen With a distant cigarette Frisbee slipping from my grip That flick I could never get The tattered yellow picnic blanket Wrinkled in the sand The panic-stricken puppy drum Wriggling in your hand Pockets full of watermelon Jolly Rancher wrappers Beach volleyball and all the games I never really wanted to play But did anyway And you cast out your line You turn back and smile Even when nothing's biting Leaning on your shoulder Now the sermon's dragging on My flyer's full of doodled flowers Cut off at the stem Holy, holy, holy Cry the seraphim again Do this in remembrance of me Go in peace, amen Your head now ever bent down Before Christ, the apple tree You're following your namesake's call To pray unceasingly I am weak but Thou art strong Means a little more each day As one by one the gifts he gives He comes and takes away Copa cleats, a give and go then one-time past the keeper Ol' Hands for Feet, weaving through the defense Like a needle and thread Through the denim bedspread That she made from old jeans Into a patchwork of dreams And together you'd tuck me Into the bottom bunk And ask Him to bless me and keep me And to give me peace And give me peace And give me peace And give me peace And give me peace And you skip to track four You open the score And lo, how a rose e're bloometh

Ransom the captive heart Squander what modest fortune you’ve managed to cling onto Upturn the temple tills Whatever it takes, if the bank’s gotta break, let nothing stop you Scatter the gathered coins 
In the end, what’s left unspent will only rob you Why can’t I even cry
 Heaven knows how hard I try
 These pilfered tears just aren’t enough To quell the thirst that’s welling up Under the covered bridge
 The thrill is gone, the kingdom long overdue
 The blessed empties raise a toast
 To wisdom the prophets and sniveling sophists overlooked The dirty rainbow-colored coats
 That sent your beloved once-removed cousin over the moon Powers of speech, don’t fail me now Bereft, I’m left to live without
 The shades of earth that others use To cover up the right to choose And the devil’s losing ground
 I feel him loosening power over me Growing stronger everyday 
It's a tragedy that’s played in two parts Living, dying mother earth 
Bringing forth, flowering, fading into nothing
 Radiant beams of dawn 
Rosy fingers stretching tighter round the neck of darkness Ransom the captive heart 
Serving its sentence in vain apprehension of an end Oh Jehova, smoke and guns Moon and stars forsook the sun Hearken, Gabriel’s rusted horn All ye soon to be unborn All this innerwork’s wearing me out
 The sinner talk coming about
 Woe is me, Lord have mercy on us all Locked behind the seven walls of self regard And the devil’s losing now
 I feel him loosening power over me
 Growing stronger everyday
I t's a tragedy that’s played in two parts
 Act I: sell your soul to feel free 
Act II: buy it back at an outrageous fee
 Spend eternity waiting for an Act III that never comes

Do You Still Have Some Fight In You Been bout but one month Dull dark and numb but The beckon and follow The beaten-down hollow Feeling I’m feeling I know you been feeling it too Been bout but one month Stared at despair but The onward urging Our past lives converging In this one holy broken moment You seize me, you breathe me You vow to believe me No matter what the hosts inside you May try to get by you And I know you know this isn’t gonna be easy So do you still have some fight in you Do you still have some fight in you Do you still have some fight in you Do you, do you Do you still have some fight in you Do you still have some fight in you Do you, do you
