The Daylight

Well I traveled up the road on a star-studded evening
And I wandered through the trees while the crickets laughed aloud
'Til I came into a clearing and there was
Nothing left to do but take a bow
'Cause I've tilled up this field, and I will reap what I'm sowing
And I've spread out my quilt so in my bed, I must lay
And my momma told me that I'm bound for heaven
I just hope she prays

'Cause every night I
Pass away
And I'm born again
In the daylight
As swirling colors
Fill my brain
I shake and beg
To see the daylight

Well I sweated something fierce into a pool of all my cancers
'Til it rippled all around me as I shivered in my wake
And I whispered to the moonlight for
An angel who could hold me through the shakes
Then it called me to my feet with a heavy, pulsing rhythm
And my gaze went to the water where
The devil locked my eyes
And my reflection slid a grin so as to tell me
That I didn't need to cry

'Cause every night I
Pass away
And I'm born again
In the daylight
As swirling colors
Fill my brain
I shake and beg
To see the daylight
