Final Take

I'm not the hero

in this real life drama

T'm in the background walking left to right

T't won't pay the bills

this filling the top frame

But | hear the director

and swallow the pain

My soul's been foreclosed

but the loan sharks still call And they sing like a romance and howl like the wind

and bury your children

in roses and lead

Someday I'll set sail

on a sloop made from prayer's hands and the sun will shake clouds of their thunder and rain
