I was born when they tapped on the moon I knew no innocence no golden spoon With less worth for a place in the rat race Desperate smile in my sad mama's fat face For some substance I left my home town I went away and just out of tune I fell down on my feet I felt so incomplete I just found a hole in the bottom of my soul Played my four-string day in and day out Became a banjo pop star all about Seven cars and diamond rings Friend and girls and all such things I could not stand to be alone But no heart in the crowd just booze in the jar and no crowd anymore when money ran out so far I fell down on my face I fell through trhe space I fell through the hole in the bottom of my soul I went crazy all shit hit the fan Lost my name, well I killed a man Burned out mind and a heart full of beer My bed for night it was shame, it was fear But then one morning a flickering light In the rain from the right side well it hit my eyes And I realized it must be a loving god or some stuff like that and then I fell down on my knees Lord please, end this misery He pulled me through the hole in the bottom of my soul Now you people listen carefully A soul in holes that is no tragedy Shall it ever happens to your soul Don't waste your time trying to fill the hole Cause if the hole is really deep enough It will be a subway for your loving god It will be a subway for his grace And he'll pull you through So fall down on your knee May Lord end your misery He will oull yout through the hole in the bottom of your soul Bottom, bottom, bottom of your soul Bottom, bottom, bottom there is a hole Bottom, bottom, there is a hole At the bottom of your soul But the Lord he will pull you through The Lord, the Lord he will pull you through

Well I'm a falling I'm a falling I'm falling out of light Well last night I was bored I went out of town At the bars met a neighbour who was hanging around And I said to the pal come on let's have a drink And let's watch the moon preparing to sink So we went out with a bottle of gin Heads to the sky with a foolish grin And suddenly I started to cry Well I'm used to going to work I'm used to goin' to stores I'm used to doing beer I'm used to doin' whores Down there in the road lies my golden shirt In the dirt And I am falling out of light Well I'm a'falling like a spark in the night Well I'm a'falling out of light Well I'm a'falling like a spark in the night Well my neighbour said, brother this is true I know what you mean I am thinking like you But you should know that you could come back home And he looked in my eyes and he went all aflame Like a torch in the dark it was really strange He said "you're like me" and then he passed away And I am falling out of light Well I'm a'falling like a spark in the night Well I'm a'falling out of light Well I'm a'falling like a spark in the night

One of those days When I was going to see my brother in town To give him a letter Written by our father & sealed by our mother Down in those times When we used to count the squirrels at home Or killing the ants Just to kill time Or to fill it With tiny drops of guiltiness Drizzle of remorse And forgot Where we've been coming from Or why And we've been sleeping So tired then. Sleeping Sleep Sleep (Sleep) What have you got there in your mouth? I said to my brother Is it a rubber cake? (Rubber cake) Feathers & pearls? Or is it the taste of a stranger? Something you should share? (Something you should share) "You are drifting," I said Why? Are you a hipster, songster, gangster or trickster? Because if this is just a dream Then you Must be very strong (very strong) "Indeed," he said I am Rain It's a rain Rain Falling rain Rain Where the rain comes from That's where I belong Focking rain So that's then we left town With his pickup, a Dodge Getaway car & astray And astray we were driving Away from them lights of the city Where comfort & complacency reigns West we were driving West (West) (West) Interstate, drifting (Passing places) Passing places, meadows, ditches (Ditches) Places bland & sad & wasted Good at most just to depose A dead body, if you have to And doubtlessly no place Where you wanted a stranger (Pressing) Pressing your face into the dirt And taking your breath (When the last) the last smell you got Is the pee of a trucker Heading to Milwaukee Or down to the Gulf of Mexico, who cares (Who cares) That's where we passed by That's where we were drifting Away (Away) And furthermore astray we went Drifting into the sticks And into the woods And into the depth & abyss And I thought to myself I should better take care Not to kill all them beetles & toads And them mice & them moles And them lizards & snails Baby snakes & God knows what else Has been crawling here Right where this four-wheeler Ploughed us a way through their life And my brother said Brother (Brother) Let's have us a shot Of dead butterfly blood Cold is the night & dark is the rain Go find yourself & won't you complain Tipping a toe into the river of pain Majestically floating under the endless rain Cold is the night & dark is the rain Go find yourself & won't you complain And then as we stood In the midst of the vast empty night Blood on the needle Blood on the tyre Blood on the cross The roads been so solid The moon been so cold The clouds been so gloomy The stars been so dark Like dead broken bulbs in a feckless traffic light On the empty crossroad of our mind That's when my brother moaned And stared into his phone (and starred into his phone) No reception As he cried & he cried Lord Lord, damn Lord My trouble so high, my fear it is rising. Creatures & beasts raging Deep in the den of my sick sicken self I'm stuck in the darkness (stuck in the darkeness) stuck in alone And only my brother might know Why I am drifting And drifting away (away) But he's drifting himself, breaking into pieces Which been blasting slowly hovering, floating Floating in all different directions to the most distant places Of the focking universe So Lord, please Lord Please help me (help me & heal me) Please set me free Lord From the need of my unleashed sickness And from the turmoil of my drifting mind Please Lord Put together (put together) the floundering parts Of my scattered self (of my scattered self) So widely dispersed Please heal me, Lord! (Please heal me Lord) (Please) please spread your grim angels Your armies & tanks And whistling missiles, oh Lord Please spread them Up to the skies And to the stars And to the moon And to the clouds And let them focking rain on me.
