In the darkness 
After the cocaine lights 
I will miss you 
More than ever 

And to color my eyes into rose 
Is to ask of my beaten bones 
To be less of meat and stone 
And more of feather 

But lord they're rolling me away 
Ain't they rolling me away 
Don't they roll oh oh oh 
In the morning in the kitchen 
I can hear my own blood clicking 
So I stand there and I listen 
Til the glowing begins 

There is light that pours sweet from new hips 
There is beer that pours sweet through my lips 
It's just a showy amen 

And in the hallway, in a slip 
She says: hey, don't you like my newest trick? 
And I say: yeah that's a pretty good trick 
Would you show me again? 

And lord I truly am awake 
And lord, truly I am afraid 
And, lord, truly I remain 

In the darkness 
After the cocaine lights 
I will miss you 
With no warning 

I will recover my sense of grace 
And rediscover my rightful place 
Yes and cover my face 
With the morning
