dance the blues
see how she dances
to bring us the news
see how she dances
ashes and news
see how she dances
rise from the blues
the amazing flight of a lone star
just like heaven and hell reaches so very far
wrapped up in pages of yesterday’s news
sings with the devil
and dances the blues
in a red dress
she dances the blues
races the dawn
to bring us the news
now that I’m here
I’ll tell you the news
come on, sing the news
we’ve all got to go like we’ve come
before or after the sun
a single string guitar
plays the amazing flight of a lone star
see how she dances
ashes and news
you are tired of waiting in shadows
hiding thoughts of new ways in old mason jars
green on the edges but much more inside
running in races
never using the prize
now open your eyes
rise, phoenix
and face the blues
rise, phoenix
now that I’m here
rise, phoenix
I’ll tell you the news
come on, sing the news (rise!)
we’ve all got to go like we’ve come
before or after the sun
and if you believe in the word,
you’ll be living the one life god’s given.
we’ve all got to go like we’ve come

we’ve all got to go like we’ve come

a single
string
guitar
plays the a-
plays the amazing
plays the amazing flight
(ooh-hu-huuuuuu!!!)
