lyrics

The river tried to drown this kid
but his lungs were too strong
salmon tried to fill me in
on the song of the moon

When will you invite me in
Cause those clocks won't ever stop
And those birds won't ever bark
And I knew it
When the wishbone wouldn't break

Can't taste my wine
Can't taste my wine

The fish nearly had me blessed
but the devil stepped in
He said that I was made
to walk the line

Now I'm the kind of ghost
who ships sad souls
No heaven or hell
I have no home

I made the deal to see you through the fire
You know, I made the deal to see you through the fire

Come with me
let's ride tonight
for now's the time for you to die
but don't you fear
and don't you cry
cause I will get you there

Forsaken even by the devil
There's nothing that I can revel
I've been wandering around beside myself
Cause I can feel and I can write
But I can't taste my wine

Can't taste my wine
Can't taste my wine
Can't taste my wine
Can't taste my wine
