lyrics

Please mama, make me a melody
Standing at the gallows and the ground’s gonna fall beneath me
There’s pressure on my chest, I’m ready to rest
Yeah I’m barely breathing

Oh life, you sure know how to play me
While my body lies there weeping
On my knees, face to the ground
Imagining the shock of how they found me

CHORUS:
Lullaby lady, save me
This pale death lies here waiting for me
Oh sing it to me slowly – tell me
It’s not your time

You come around, only on occasion
And once you’ve decided to stay
Lightening, you’re coming to a revelation
the things that were will never go away

Brought nothing home - from the hunt – just defeated
They’ll say I lost my head and didn’t try
They’ll wonder how they didn’t see it
They’ll take my gun and hide me from the light, yeah
They’ll take my gun and hide me from the light

CHORUS:

BRIDGE:
When you’re down and really down
And you can’t go on
You want to scream out loud
Take me now
or let me live my glory

She sings and makes some hope
She breathes into the soul
You know the despair
Won’t last forever

CHORUS:
