Jesus Stones

Neil Young performed in Stockholm, Sweden last night. And Iran had a fake election. And, I f-ed up.

Jesus Stones

I have have a sore, a self-inflicted pain
I don't know about you love, but I am gone
I am walking the path of stones and blood
Sitting in this room that we used to call home
I hurt you hard and I am sorry for that
You hurt me back, and yes I feel ashamed
You threw me on the road of Jesus stones
You said you'll never want me back
I am sorry I hurt you, and I mean it
I am sorry I hurt your friends with it
I am sorry ain't gonna mean much to you
At least I said it: I still love you
I was so mean and oh so bad
How can one sink that low you may ask?
Did I ever tell you the story about names?
That's how low, it's a damn, damn, damn, damn shame

The train is running, it has no breaks.
The stations are burning all up in flames.
Jesus is watching from within the fire.
His laughing with pure desire.

I am a joker and a fool
I don't have many words for you
This train is running fast and furious
It's almost like an atomic bomb
These are the words from a filthy pig
Burning his own flesh and blood
The stones are hitting my purest mind
It hurts my dear, that's no lie
I'll be sorry for years my dear
You'll hear my songs of sorrow
I'll be sorry for myself, but mostly for you
I'll be sorry for all that hear this story

I don't deserve to be down here
But I will never leave
And I've learned one thing
You can't escape the beast!
- M Gira (from Failure, Swans)

The train is running, it has no breaks.
The stations are burning all up in flames.
Jesus is watching from within the fire.
His laughing with pure desire.
