Words I Love: New Year's Prayer by Jeff Buckley

Fall in light, fall in light. Fall in light, fall in light
Feel no shame for what you are
As you now are in your blood
Fall in light

Feel no shame for what you are
Feel no shame for what you are
Feel it as a waterfall
Fall in light
Fall in light, fall in light, Fall in light
Fall in light, fall in light, fall in light
Grow in light

Stand absolved behind your electric chair, dancing
Stand absolved behind your electric chair, dancing
Past the sound within the sound
Past the voice within the voice

Leave your office
Run past your funeral
Leave your home, car
Leave your pulpit
Join us in the streets where we
Join us in the streets where we
Don't belong, don't belong
You and the stars
Throwing light

Fall, fall
Fall in light, fall in light. fall in light
Fall in light, fall in light fall in light
Grow in light

Thorns

Anemic body
Restless and torn
Ripping it slowly
Walking through thorns

Leaving a trail
Of blood behind her
Finds her way back
Scars leave a reminder

Beautiful roses
Soft, pretty killers
Fragrant and deadly
Perfume made of her

Anemic body
Draining and pale
Thorns in her body
Pink porcelain shell
