Ash Wednesday - Elvis Perkins

Written by：Elvis Perkins

Oh oh oh

Oh oh oh

Oh oh oh

The tents go up

As I go down

Down to flats

And into the sound

The closer I get

To city

Further I am from memory

In the green grass looking up

For the words of the angry sun

'No one'

When he says 'no one'

Yeah he means 'no one'

No one

No one will

Survive

Ash wednesday alive

No soldier no lover

No father no mother

Not a lonely child

In the up and in the bedroom

A black and white of the bride and the groon

Bring me to my knees

With the colorized bad dream

That takes it's place on ash wednesday

White noise and love

Will be my only **

On that day nine suns away

From that sad sad saturday

When fire my friend

Fire my villian

You take away yesterday

To give to me today

When nothing's free no

Now it's ash wednesday

So each day is ash

Wednesday

All this

Life

Is ash

Wednesday

All the doors are shut

And the windows barely opened up

The fire's all around

It's the ending of the drought

And we are ready now

For tear gas clouds

On my mind come on fill the house

Finally and weep

For it's

King and queen sleep

Both now in

The arms of ash

Wednesday

Ash

Wednesday

He he hey

Oh oh oh

No
