Dry Lightning (Live) - Biloxi Parish

I threw my robe on in the morning Watched the ring on the stove turn red Stared hypnotized into a cup of coffee Pulled on my boots and made the bed Screen door hangin' off its hinges Kept bangin' me awake all night As I look out the window The only thing in sight Is dry lightning on the horizon line Just dry lightning and you on my mind. I chased the heat of her blood Like it was the holy grail Descend beautiful spirit Into the evening pale Her appaloosa's kickin' Kickin' in the corral smelling rain There's a low thunder rolling 'Cross the mesquite plain But there's just dry lightning on the horizon line It's just dry lightning and you on my mind I'd drive down to Alvarado Street Where she'd dance to make ends meet I'd spend the night over my gin As she'd talk to her men The piss yellow sun Comes bringin' up the day She said "Ain't nobody can give nobody What they really need anyway." Well you get so sick of the fightin' You lose your fear of the end But I can't lose your memory And the sweet smell of your skin And it's just dry lightning on the horizon line Just dry lightning and you on my mind

Lightning crashes, an old mother cries Her placenta falls to the floor The angel opens her eyes The confusion sets in Before the doctor can even close the door Lightning crashes, an old mother dies Her intentions fall to the floor The angel closes her eyes The confusion that was hers Belongs now to the baby down the hall (baby down the hall) (Baby down the hall) Oh, now feel it coming back again Like a rolling thunder chasing the wind Forces pulling from the center of the Earth again I can feel it Lightning crashes, a new mother cries This moment she's been waiting for The angel opens her eyes Pale blue colored iris Presents the circle Puts the glory out to hide, hide Oh, now feel it comin' back again Like a rollin' thunder chasing the wind Forces pullin' from the center of the Earth again I can feel it I can feel it, ah I can feel it coming back again Like a rolling thunder chasing the wind Forces pulling from the center of the Earth again I can feel it, ah I can feel it coming back again Like a rolling thunder chasing the wind Forces pulling from the center of the Earth again I can feel it I can feel it (I can feel it coming back again) I can feel it (like a rolling thunder chasing the wind)

Guilty as charged But dammit, it ain't right There's someone else controlling me Death in the air Strapped in the electric chair This can't be happening to me Who made you God to say? I'll take your life from you Flash before my eyes Now it's time to die Burning in my brain I can feel the flame Yeah yeah yeaaah Wait for the sign To flick the switch of death It's the beginning of the end Sweat chilling cold As I watch death unfold -Dream Flash before my eyes Now it's time to die Burning in my brain I can feel the flame Yeah yeah yeah Go Someone help me Please, God help me They're trying to take it all away I don't want to die Follow me!
