Song For Zula (Live) - Phosphorescent

Some say love is a burning thing

That it makes a fiery ring

Oh but I know love as a fading thing

Just as fickle as a feather in a stream

See honey I saw love

You see it came to me

It puts it's face up to my face

So I could see

Yeah then I saw love disfigure me

Into something I am not recognizing

See the cage it called I said come on in

I will not open myself up this way again

Nor lay my face to the soil

Nor my teeth to the sand

I will not lay like this for days now upon end

You will not see me fall

Nor see me struggle to stand

To be acknowledged by some touch from

His gnarled hands

You see the cage it called

I said come on in

I will not open myself this way again

You see the moon is bright in

That treetop night

I see the shadows that we cast in

The cold clean light

I might fear I go and my heart is white

And we race right out on

The desert plains all night

So honey I am now some broken thing

I do not lay in the dark waiting for day here

Now my heart is gold my feet are right

And I'm racing out on the desert plains all night

So some say love is a burning thing

That it makes a fiery ring

All that I know love as a caging thing

Just a killer come to call from some awful dream

And all you folks you come to see

You just to stand there in the glass looking at me

But my heart is wild and my bones are steel

And I could kill you with my bare hands

If I was free
