Dust

Screaming Trees Dust Lyrics
1.Halo Of Ashes

She wears a halo of ashes
Specter on the wind
Waits on me so patiently
I no longer can pretend

Sky lies a thousand mile below
Stars shine and the moon is clear
With nothing i can only warn
Won't you be left near here

I been a long long time away
With one foot in the grave
Glorified in the dying of the sun

My angel pulls me closer
As my poison she crawls thru
Walks with me so silently
I no longer can refuse

Tomorrow my thousand miles behind
Star shine and the moon below
Wake me where you find me
Pretend you don't know

I been a long long time away...(repeat)

She wears a halo of ashes
Specter on the wind
Waits on me so patiently
I no longer can pretend

Tomorrow my thousand miles behind
Face painted in the moon below
Wake me where you find me
Pretend you don't know
I been a long long time away...(repeat 2x's)


2.All I Know

Bite the thorn that pierce the skin
Come back down to earth again
The cold is creeping deep inside
You disconnect the telephone line

Gotta get away
Gotta get away
Get away
Gotta get away
'fore the lord gonna make me stay

All that i know
Shoulda been
Coulda been
Mine

I killed the last way out of this
Persuaded by a deceitful kiss

That said you better stay
Said you better stay
Better stay
Said you better stay
'fore it's all gone
Gone away

All that i know...(repeat)

Bite the thorn that pierce the skin
Come back down to earth again
The cold is creeping deep inside
You disconnect the telephone line

Gotta get away....
'fore i lose my mind
Said you better stay...
'fore it's all gone
Gone away

All that i know...(repeat)


3.Look At You

Her ghost hides
In my mind
In the night
In a way she's haunting me
I'm wanting her still
Thru rose colored skies
Or blue, blue moonlight
There's miracles on high
She's walking by

When i look at you i've got a 2nd chance
Really need to have you now
One by one they fall it always breaks me down

The quiet
Cuts me thru
The candle burnt
The knife has turned
The pain withers
Alive i know deep inside

When i look at you i've got a second chance
Really need to take it now
One by one they fall it always breaks me down

Her ghost hides
In my eyes
In the night... (repeat 1st verse)


4.Dying Days

All these dying days
I walk the ghost town
Used to be my city
I seen a holy man
Seen him crying with the mother mary
All these dying days

Yes it's too late
This life isn't mine
Lord hear me pray
Can you ease my mind
Now they're gone forever
Jesus i done gone over
Sleeping alone you
Stay on your side
If i couldn't lie
Like all of a thousand other times
I wouldn't be on this highway
Taken on down this highway

All these dying days... (repeat, waiting for the sunshine x2)


5.Make My Mind

Take a minute just to breathe
Take a minute 'till i'm wide awake
And i'm searching' once again
And the sun has left the sky

And you're on my mind
And you're on my mind

Take a second to believe
Just a second you won't have to wait
Don't ya turn your back on me
I couldn't look into your eyes

And i don't know why
And i don't know why

But i'll try again on another day

You make my mind
Just wanna leave this world behind
You make my mind (2x's)

Let the silence creep in
(let the silence creep in)
In the silence i'm awake all night
Just searching' once again
(searching' once again)
Well could i reach you in the morning light

If i closed my eyes
If i closed my eyes

Well you're here right away

You make my mind...(2x's)

You're on my mind
I'll try again on another day

And i don't know why (2x's)
If i close my eyes (2x's)
Well you're here right away

You make my mind


6.Sworn & Broken

Winter's setting in again
And it feels
Like the end is near
Senseless sense and i'm alone
Watching' the seconds
Passing' by

Come january i swear this world
Won't be the one
That we once lived on
Took an oath
For a promise sworn and broken
All that's gone
Away

When monday morning you can't wake up
Still dreaming' of
What could've been
Something good has gone and left you
It's another tear
One won't deny

Come january i swear this world
Won't be the one
That we once lived on
Took an oath
Another promise sworn and broken
All that's gone
All that's gone before you've changed

Well monday morning you don't wake up
Still dreaming' of
What could've been
Something good has gone and left you
It's another tear
One more denial

Come january i swear this world
Won't be the one
That we once lived on
Took an oath
Another promise sworn and broken
All that's gone
All that's gone before
All that's gone before
Has changed


7.Witness

It's taken everything
Everything i got and it's hung me on the line
Water rising up over me
And i think i'm gonna die
Think i'm gonna die

I told a lie
That's what i said
I told the one you know i'll always keep
Whose god is mine (3x's)
Whose god is
The one with the witness

Shine your lonely light on me
I'll be there to hold the mirror
I can take you down with me
Show you lonely, lonely, lonely

Death wastes no time it seems
And it's hung me on the line
Hung me on the line
Hard rain falling all over me
And i think i'm gonna die
Think i'm gonna die

I told a lie
That's what i said
I told the one you know i'll always keep
Whose god is mine (3x's)
Whose god is
The one with the witness
Shine.......


8.Traveler

It's a broken morning outside
Go easy on my mind
Cos you're this dream i'm hanging' on
And i'm trying' to meet the dawn

And the longest way i traveled
From the darkness to the light
Lord it's been a million miles
In these prisons i can't abide

I'm half way here, i'm half way there (repeat)
All along i've been the traveler, yeah

Forever outta time
Forever just unwinds
I see the green beyond the blue
And i'm trying' to make it thru

And the longest way i traveled
From the darkness to the light
Lord it seems a million miles
All my brothers
I can't unbind

I'm half way here, i'm half way there (repeat)
Oh lord i been the traveler, yeah

It's why the world is cold
Go easy on my soul
Cos you're this dream i'm hanging on (same as first)

I'm half way here, i'm half way there (repeat 2x's)
All along i been the traveler, yeah


9.Dime Western

Born to work under the way your velvet lies
Smoke unfolding hazy in the sky
Arise

I've been where you never been
I've seen what you've never seen
I've dreamed what you've never dreamed
I've left what you'd never leave
But now i can only find one way
Take me higher

Rays of shattered light to bleed my eyes
The spark has burned away until i'm blind
Inside

I've seen what you've never seen
I've been where you never been
I've dreamed what you've never dreamed
I've left what you'd never leave
But now i can only find one way
Take me higher

There's only your reflection left to hide
Once you know the aim i call you is
Still mine

I've seen what you've never seen
I've been where you never been
I've left what you'd never leave
I've dreamed what you've never dreamed
But now i can... (repeat 2x's)
Take me higher (3x's)


10.Gospel Plow

If you wanna get to heaven let me tell you how
Keep your hand on the gospel plow
Hold on (3x's)
Mary had a golden chain
Every link spelled jesus' name
Hold on (3x's)
Mary had a golden chain
Hold on
If you wanna get to heaven let me tell you how
Keep your hand on the gospel plow

Waking up without you now i'm on my own
Coming down the sky burns into my soul
And i wanna know that you're mine
I gotta know you're mine

Come on back tomorrow said you'll be all right
I'll never find the way now to kill the time

And i wanna know what's in your mind
I gotta know you're mine

And i fell alone
And my dreams are torn

You're not at all
Not at all
Not at all
Who you say you are
Gotta know
Gotta know
Gotta know where
You're going
Waking up without you girl... (same as beginning)
And i fell alone... (same)
