[00:09.32] If I wrote it in your letter then it don't mean shit
[00:14.96] Cause I am a liar, a dirty wire
[00:18.72] You could name my body but it'll make you sick
[00:24.55] You have a savior, it's your heart of anger
[00:28.36] But my dog ain't nothin', he ain't nothin' like my lover
[00:33.27] Ain't nothin' like my lover at all
[00:38.16] He will sit upon my shoulder, let the dark day cover
[00:43.25] The dark day cover me up
[00:48.63]
[00:57.20] I've got two half dollars underneath my bed
[01:02.61] One's for my baby, one's for the lady
[01:06.66] On the sixth floor found me when my mind was dead
[01:11.83] Buy what they tell you but I'm, I'm here to save you
[01:16.53] But my dog ain't nothin', he ain't nothin' like my lover
[01:21.24] Ain't nothin' like my lover at all
[01:25.94] He will sit upon my shoulder, let the dark day cover
[01:31.03] The dark day cover me up
[01:36.10]
[01:36.31] I heard a lady singing,
[01:38.66] “We're all bound together!”
[01:43.34] I joined her side by saying,
[01:45.82] “To dance beneath the heavens!”
[01:48.98]
[02:08.62] Christ, your mother's hanging on my bedroom door
[02:14.45] I'll bet she's pretty, Queen of your City
[02:18.37] If you burn all sinners I could join your corp
[02:23.46] And sing HOLY, HOLY till my, my day of glory
[02:28.29] But my Lord, you ain't nothin', you ain't nothin' like my lover
[02:33.15] Ain't nothin' like my lover at all
[02:37.80] You would sit upon my shoulder, let the dark day cover
[02:42.69] The dark day cover me up
[02:47.15] You could sit upon my shoulder, let the dark day cover
[02:52.19] The dark day cover me up
[00:09.32] If I wrote it in your letter then it don' t mean shit
[00:14.96] Cause I am a liar, a dirty wire
[00:18.72] You could name my body but it' ll make you sick
[00:24.55] You have a savior, it' s your heart of anger
