Song Lyrics

Civility

Band: Jerry Joseph

Album: Civility

Woke today the sweat soaked through my sheets Stumble naked, shivering on my feet I find my jesus shaking like a slave Perhaps it is too early to crawl out of my cave It's been cold and gray and raining here for weeks Sick and thirsty, difficult to speak, Apparently I walk this one alone Memories of summers, dripping from my bones Rummage through my desk for cigarettes A list I made last night, of things that I forget Wish I could remember how to pray Some Pagan sacrifice to welcome in the day It seems the sun has chose to share its rays Looking like we're in for better days I dreamt that Luis Martin said to me, everything but with Civility I can hear the girls out on the street, and I can hear the winter, sounding its retreat I can feel my baby's cast iron heart, medicine and hammers, breaking it apart Wipe the sleep and pity from my eyes, you always told me never compromise Yeah I will meet you one day in the sun, I promise you deliver a safer place to run It seems the sun has chose to share its rays Looking like we're in for better days I dreamt that Luis Martin said to me, everything but with Civility You can have everything, Civility
