Healing Side Of The Night

Here's a spade
Take your pain, go on and bury it
But if you need me to
I'll conceal and carry it
The getaway car is running
Let's take a ride
To the healing side of the night

The book of signs
A blind man
The wine and Lazarus
Gangster cells on corners
Scheming and cancerous
Armed and dangerous in your blood committing crimes
On the healing side

Here's drinking to your health again
Hope testing negative
False prophets and positives dispatching all those lies
And in the darkness she took my hand and led me one more time
To the healing side of the night

Well beauty fades but never your virtue
They're chasing you down but there's nothing left to really hurt you
The future's written in dust and that suits you
Come back to bed
My dear I want to loot you
Be a sheet of glass I can shoot through

Here's drinking to your health again
Hope testing negative
False prophets and positives dispatching all those lies
And in the darkness she took my hand and led me one more time
To the healing side of the night

Here's the spade
Take your pain, go on and bury it
But it's not your burden alone
If you need me, I'll carry it
The getaway car is running, let's take a ride
To the healing side

Here's drinking to your health again
Hope testing negative
False prophets and positives dispatching all those lies
And in the darkness she took my hand and led me one last time
