Lyrics
I can see them marching to the sea
Rock of Ages, zero history
They will lay their roses on the trail
They will drag their Jonah from the whale
They will offer up the Devil's choice
They will sing hosannas with one voice
She will come and bear the golden child
He will light the darkness with his smile
They will offer fire and silver bowls
He will breathe the spirits in his soul
He will lay on hearts with healing hands
He will kneel before the Queen of Man
Radio cab
Pulling away
I don't want you to go
I want you to stay
I have seen you curled up on the floor
Wishing it was what it was before
I have made a promise on a book
Wrapped up in your blankets while I shook
Reaper, lover, warrior, hero, friend
Swear you'll stand beside me ‘til the end
Radio cab
Pulling away
I don't want you to go
I want you to stay
Radio cab
Permanent waves
Taking you home
Keeping you safe
Radio cab
Tell your tales of blood and sex and steel
Barefoot on the coals to make it real
Place your fingers right into my wounds
Call my name and howl it at the moon
Swear I'm going to love you ‘til I die
Swear you're going to love me ‘til I die
Radio cab
Pulling away
I don't want you to go
I want you to stay
Radio cab
Radio waves
Taking you home
Keeping you safe
Radio cab
