Nick Cave — Fire in the Blood / Snake Song lyrics

Lyrics

In the morning sun.
The birds are singing in the pines
In the morning sun.
Come stand with me, my darling one,
Among the trembling pines.
We feel His presence all around
Fire in the sky.
You can’t hold me, I’m too slippy,
I do no sleeping, I get wandering
You can touch me if you want to,
I got poison, just my body.
Lie in circle on the sunlight
Shine like diamonds on a dark night.
Ain’t no blessing in my smile,
Only things that sway me back.
Future, he don’t try to find me Skin I’ve been through dies behind me Solid hollow wrapped in hatred,
Not a trouble, men are wasted.
You can slip and try to find me Hold your breath and fled deny me Makes no difference to my thinking
I’ll be here and you start sinking.
