And as I stared down
This shadowed corridor
I saw a shimmering lake
The chain I had to break
Another journey
That I can not forsake
I'll say my 'thanks' and 'please'
Delicate courtesy
Although I don't wanna rush it mate
But I best be on my way
Because these birds sing a haunted tune
Sorta sounds like her name
Well I said I don't wanna part in those crimes
Lord I don't wanna serve more time
And on this journey
I held a burden
I chased a sunlight
That I couldn't swallow
I saw another
A fabled brother
Who knew the real blues
Same one I suffered through
And he said brother can you help me out
I got this howling in my mind
Said oh mister won't you let it out
I'm an innocent guy
Well I said I don't want a part in your crimes
Lord I already served my time
