day sleeper - go tell it on the mountain lyrics

[verse 1]
i’ve been starting fires
somewhere out behind the house
standing sentry in the choir
still, as the chorus rises loud
i need something to reduce to charcoal
and something to raze to ash
i’m standing by the fire
go tell it on the mountain
melt me down to the wire
go tell it on the mountain
melt me down to the wire

[verse 2]
the flames faint and die
like sugar ray leonard
standing at the lip of desire
go tell it on the mountain
melt me down to the wire
go tell it on the mountain
melt me down to the wire

[verse 3]
the congregation rises
evocation, elope with me
i’ve been stranded in the pyre
go tell it on the mountain
melt me down to the wire
go tell it on the mountain
melt me down to the wire
[bridge]
babe, you’re bleeding on the bed
and i just hope you come around again
i’ve been standing at the nadir
go tell it on the mountain
come on and tell it to the fear
go tell it on the mountain
come on and tell it to me

[outro]
i’ve been starting fires
somewhere out behind the house
