Sacrosanct

I'm tied up and rolled out In these feelings I can't hide And the government's at my door saying They're gonna turn all my lights out It'll be better that way I'll sleep during the day And when my eyes adjust to the darkness I'll know what there is left to say Like the rain We will graciously fall without aim And I'd spend a lifetime trying to make it right But no ring of salt Could bind us in the night When I quit my job in the afternoon I won't take it back in the evening If I die at dusk I'll be dust at dawn Let the buzzards have my being But if the sun comes up again Then I swear I'll hedge my bets On a revolution that could turn me loose And save me from the day Like the rain We will graciously fall without aim And I'd spend a lifetime tryin' to figure it out But no holy ghost, no sacrosanct No deck of cards, no burning light No ring of salt Could bind us in the night
