Riding the Nightingale

Dyin' mama, barely breathin' in a bed of nails
To wander through the ruin smokin' and pale
Came upon an angel and a nightingale
Back where the darkness comesBetween the earth and skies above
Dead weight on my body's bones
I think I dug too deep a hole
Think I dug too deep a holeBetter run for cover babe, you better hide
Don't do no good to wait 'til time decides
Time decides, time, timeI need a little more time
Riding on my nightingale
So many years to, to ride
Hiding on my nightingale around my heartClimbing down the stairs at last
I wouldn't touch me right
You're too proud and I'm too scared
And I'm neither here nor thereIt's only fear, we'll open up the doors
And let me breathe that airBetter run for cover babe, you better hide
Just don't do to wait 'til time decides
Time decides, time, time
I need a little more timeMama, I'm gonna cry now, cry
I'm gonna cry now, oh, you're makin' me cry
Now cry, I'm gonna cry now, oh, no, no
No, no, no, I'm gonna cry, cry, I'm gonna die cryin'Better run for cover babe, you'd better hide
Just don't to wait 'til time decides
Tied around my nightingale
So many years to, to hideFly my nightingale around my heart
Who's riding on my nightingale?
Who's riding on my nightingale?
Who's riding on my nightingale?Who's riding on my nightingale?
Who's riding on my nightingale?
Who's riding on my nightingale?
Who's riding on my nightingale?
