On a cobweb afternoon
In a room of emptiness
By a freeway I confess
I was lost in the pages
Of a book full of death
Reading how we\'ll die alone
And if we\'re good we\'ll lay to rest
Anywhere we want to go

[Refren]
n your house I long to be
Room by room patiently
I\'ll wait for you there
Like a stone I\'ll wait for you there
Alone

On my deathbed I will pray
To the gods and the angels
Like a pagan to anyone
Who will take me to heaven
To a place I recall
I was there so long ago
The sky was bruised
The win was bled
And there you led me on

[Refren]

And on I read
Until the day was gone
And I sat in regret
Of all the things I\'ve done
For all that I\'ve blessed
And all that I\'ve wronged
In dreams until my death
I will wonder on

[Refren]
