Текст песни Mark Lanegan - Burning Jacob's Ladder

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
