Burning Jacob's Ladder Lyrics

Dreams stripped down beyond firelight
I would go over but my only coat's soft white
And seeing things unreal
God knows what that stain
And what comes crawling back again

Tears a harbor
Down to the thorny altar
I'm afraid i might fade away

It's to the blood we sing and burn
Thousand blackbirds on a string return
There's a solitary sun too high
Gone without the chosen one, goodbye

The ashes scatter
Burning jacob's ladder
I'm afraid i might fade away

Rage untethered
The soul a stony desert
I'm afraid i might fade away
