Vinegar & Sun

Heaven showers us with kisses
And stars rush out in your eyes
I don't like to see Him rise
I don't like the way He flies

And I'm waiting outside the hall
With my mind far away from it all
And I cannot heed the call
No, I cannot heed the call
You know I hate to see you crawl
With no water here at all
Just vinegar and sun
Just vinegar and sun

Who's hung this bird around my neck?
Who's led my thoughts to a wreck
That must never be? It wasn't I, it wasn't me
Your face is cracking like the sky
Fetch me my cross bow
And do not ask why

And I cannot heed the call
No, I cannot heed the call
And I cannot heed the call
No, I cannot heed the call
You know I hate to see you crawl
With no water here at all
Just vinegar and sun
Just vinegar and sun
