Heard this ECG computer screen keep beeping I'm alive
Heard the waiting room sat silent 'til they said that I'd survived.
And I stared out through the tubing
 there was saline and confusion
and I saw you all there seated at my side
and only then I felt revived.

And it's strange the waves that wrecked our vessel also washed us to the coast
Our cigarettes left tracks of ashes, but they masked us in their smoke
So when they asked if I was hopeless, had to answer "I don't know"
Because the summer sometimes left me all alone
But on the coldest nights Orion walked me home.

And in the morning there were horses
There were locust hoards and plagues
all the sinners had my back and all the righteous walked away

And in the morning there were horsemen
there were open sores and flames
all the sinners had my back
  all the pious packed their bags, they grabbed their shit, they turned their backs
and walked away

Na na,
Na na na na na na na na na na
Na, Na na
Na na na na na na na na na na
Na Na na
Na na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na

He said, "I swear I see a red lung
 and I want it painted black."
He was wrist-deep in the rope-burns 
 where they'd tied him to the tracks
He had bruises stacked on fractures
 He had bite-marks through his back
A flock of freshly-flightless vultures
 found their fucking midnight snack

We rode the phone-lines through the night-time
 and came out the other side
Then the moon it moved in close
 it tried to help us raise the tide
The zodiac looked life-like
 they were so much more than signs
And the waves broke like a metronome
 they marched to shore in line

Took the red-eye on the rip-tide
 currents carried me away
Took the Olentangy up
 I tried to hit Sandusky Bay

These lakes they just taste different
 All these rivers taste the same
All these lakes they taste so great
 They live up to their motherfuckin name

Na na
Na na na na na na na na na na
Na na
Na na na na na na na na na na
Na na
Na na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na

In the morning there were horses
There were locust hoards and plagues
all the sinners had my back 
all the righteous walked away

And in the morning there were horsemen
there were open sores and flames
all the sinners had my back
all the pious packed their bags and walked away
