lyrics
I cut my vocal chords on the sun,
Spill my guts on the pavement below,
But the clouds paint over on a canvas of blue,
And all the lights turn too low.
Then the trees chop the clouds into puffs of air,
The sky cracks open on me,
The rain smashes like pots ‘pon the court square,
Then the sky really bleeds
I’m playin’ for Warren Street
The open signs flash off, leaving me in the cold,
They take down their wares, disappear,
But the wind still whistles through the stillest streets,
And the dew drips like tears.
If they could see that the words I scream,
Can’t be held in a pen or page,
Hell hath widened, but the Hell I’ve got,
Is like a lion in a pretzel cage.
I’m prayin’ for Warren Street
And the angels I see don’t brandish halos,
Those clouds don’t relay harps,
No, the God I sing to sits on the paved ground,
And trash cans sing out of tarps.
I’ve thought I’ve felt love though I know I’d not,
They’ve slipped so sleek through the scars in the concrete,
I’ve been through Hell that raged in the shape of a heart,
And shattered like glass in the street.
I’m prayin’ for Warren Street,
I’m prayin’ for you and me,
I’m prayin’ for the cracks in the concrete,
I’m prayin’ for the cars shinin’ down my street,
I’m prayin’ for the sky and seas,
I’m prayin’ for the cows made into meat (God bless their cow souls)
I’m prayin’ for those who cannot sleep,
I’m prayin’ for those who’ve lost their dreams,
I’m prayin’ for God’s mercy,
I’m prayin for Warren Street.

This man is spectaular. He has beautiful lyrics and an equally beautiful gift for production (heck, he's producing MY album. The struggle is real) This is just a taste of how great he is Caleb Lail
