jeffrey martin - newborn thing lyrics

Loading...

i rode this sinking ship down to the bottom of the sea
wherein the darkening deep burst into flames
and i warmed my t–th on the impossible heat
and found my feet underneath me again

and i went kicking to the surface just like a newborn thing
ready to begin what i needed to begin
i felt the cracking of the whip and hissing in the street
and saw the men who were dying to live

i met a preacher who was tethered by shackles and chains
to the darkness down inside of him
and then a child is free, as the air she breathes
and i worried how i was meant to live

count the cannons of the hill
it is easy to see that the mightiest star is the most afraid
like a candle through the eye
is it so hard to believe that a dead man has nothing to gain?

now there’s blood in my eyes from all this trying to see
i am deeper in then when i first came
and i have traded my gold for a pen and some ink
and i am trying hard to write my name
