• The Gates of Heaven and Hell

I seen the sun set at the break of dawn
as a rose bloomed in the winter's arms
i lit a match in the pouring rain

helped the lord pray in vain

I burdened a beggar with money and a home
walked the water that jesus wouldn't roam
sold my kiss to a dying whore
buttered my bread with the mud on your floor

I hollowed the tips of the bullets in my eyes
looks like fireworks when I cry
the love i land is like a windchime
it's pleasing til it makes you lose your mind

There's a chain-gang of poets in my mind
breakin them rocks with a bottle of wine
pavin' the road to the heart of mankind
we walk that crooked line

and the gates of Heaven and Hell
are adjacent and unmarked
they let you choose the door
and there are you are, forever more

police gettin' paid overtime these days
'cause all them laws must be obeyed
twenty-first century ramblin man
make Jimmie Rogers look like a tax-payin man

brave odysseus ain't got nothin on me
he may've been lost but at least he was free
the sirens the sought him wore no badge
nor did they arrest him for drinkin behing the mast

and the gates of Heaven and Hell
are adjacent and unmarked
they let you choose the door
and there are you are, forever more
