Hiding from that suicide
Painting houses, getting by
I read that book just like they said
Tried my best to raise the dead
There's cracks in the walls in every room
Sweating and bleeding just like a wound
Just like a wound
Put me in a ten-by-ten
And let me sit with all my sins
Cigarettes and dirty pictures
Dreaming of that forked river
You can't fill me up with your false hope
It won't ever sink into my bones
I spoke them words just like you please
Tried my best to keep it neat
But there's holes in the floor right where we stand
Don't tell me 'bout your promised land
Your promised land
Put me in a ten-by-ten
And let me sit with all my sins
Cigarettes and dirty pictures
Dreaming of that forked river
Put me in a ten-by-ten
And let me sit with all my sins
Cigarettes and dirty pictures
Dreaming of that forked river
Put me in a ten-by-ten
Let me sit with all my sins
With all my sins
