Lyrics
The heavens will open
like a dove she will descend
your druthers are choking
and the rain will wash your sin
sullied by bottle
and rhyme-rusted care
like tent-folk that travel
by soap-box and ware
I swear
Bread cast on waters
the seed is in the wind
in banks and cathedrals
by sword and violin
carried by vineyards
and war-withered stares
like ox-yoke and gavel
and end-game affairs
I swear
brazen with cold whims
and devil-may-care
back-slidin' pilgrims
and dust-bowlin' prayer
I swear
