Lying all night, screaming in pain
Defending the cross in the Belfast rain
But Billy saw me at the end of the street
So I lit up my torch and embraced him with heat
??? ??? ??? ??? ??? 340
Threw me in a quarry no way to get free
I called on Hank to give me my life
And he came on his black horse Obsidian Knife
It happened one night, I was lying in bed
Eyes wide open, I could have been dead
Sky lady came with her eyes shining brightly
And the bears and the billies and the police took flight
But I called them all back, and the sky lady too
The bears and the billies and the police, me and you
We laid down our bombs and bows
And drank to their health on the Anatolian plateau
From New Scotland to Calgary
The geese are high and so are we
We don't even need a map
We're way too fast for the highway trap
So hit the road, and shine a light
I think we're going to find a path tonight
Shooting star and the moon is bad
It's the best damn omen that we ever had
