The whole place is dark
Every light on this side of the town
Suddenly it all went down
Now we'll all be brothers of the fossil fire of the sun
Now we will all be sisters of the fossil blood of the moon

Someone must have set 'em up
Now they'll be working in the cold grey rock
Now they'll be working in the hot mill steam...
Now they'll be working in the concrete
In the sirens and the silences now
All the great set up hearts
All at once start to beat



After tonight if you don't want this to be
A secret out of the past
I will resurrect it, I'll have a good go at it
I'll streak his blood across my beak and dust my feathers with his ash
I can feel his ghost breathing down my back
I will try and know whatever I try
I will be gone but not forever
I will try and know whatever I try
I will be gone but not forever

Real truth about it is
No one gets it right
Real truth about it is
We're all supposed to try
There ain't no end to the sands
I've been trying to cross
The real truth about it is my kind of life's no better off
It's got the maps or if it's lost
We will try and know whatever we try
We will be gone but not forever
Come on let's try and know whatever we try
We will be gone but not forever

Real truth about it is there ain't no end to the desert I'll cross
I've really known it all along
Mama here comes midnight
With the dead moon in its jaws
Must be the big star about to fall
Mama here comes midnight
With the dead moon in its jaws
Must be the big star about to fall
Long dark blues
Will-o'-the-wisp
Long dark blues
The big star is falling
Long dark blues
Will-o'-the-wisp
The big star is falling

Long dark blues
Through the static and distance
Long dark blues
A farewell transmission
Long dark blues
Listen
Long dark blues
Listen
Long dark blues

@reddwing4368

Kicking back
With doctor Ralph
In his white lab coat
And hair net
All day I ve been
Dancing on the line
And Swimming in the pit
Toking up on the loading dock smoke break
Keep six this time
So we don't get caught
Bad look twice in a week
Not my problem now
It's a union beef
Punch out
Get dressed
Spilling back into
the streets
Bums grinding everyone around
For some change
Big crowds
tonight
All sorts
Cold icy wind
With that low dead moon shining bright
Don t tell me I forgot my light
Can t go back
Too far now
Too late
Gangsters on every corner
getting closer to home
Looking me up and down
There Seeming real hungry tonight
I just Gun em all off
As I grip my box
Just to feel safe
They don t want no smoke with me tonight
I m too big n wild
They ll just wait for someone meek n mild
See I didn t break or look away
Saves me from getting jacked every way
it's Just another day as a prisoner
In this beautiful downtown
Ghetto I live
i love it all
Gun shots at midnight
Clubs let out then the gang fights
Cops gonna bust your ass
Only thing out tonight is police n fools
Dark blue old school
The Coppers and the foolss

@thartwig

Having just found the original, and subsequently this, I can say with confidence the original is one of the greatest folks ballads ever.

@claudioacunaj1759

I agree

@davidknell9676

Me too but I may not of ever come to know of if not for this appreciation

@SunnyvaleTrailerParkSupervisor

@@davidknell9676 yeah man totally. Gotta love musicians doing that stuff. Love it

@SluggerNugget

This, to me, is the much cleaner, harmonious, diverse, more interesting version. The duet also adds a brand new layer of life to the lyrics. I feel like Songs: Ohia walked so the Morbster could run

@sixtwentysix

The original was recorded in one take.
