Into God Knows What (rejoinder)

Take the edge off of the dark days

Blunt doubts cruel knife blade

Steal the sting out of the grave

At that last shovelful of earth

I swear i've never heard a louder curse

Than before they put those digging those away

Chorus:

Let me go down easy...when the box gets shut

Let me go down easy...into god knows what

Well, you know i read the book and i heard the angels

sing

Heard a few sermons on the road from "a" to "b."

You vanished into thin air swept out of this room

All the good ones leave the party way too soon

Now, i won't need the drink and i won't miss the pills

But, if i could take your locket picture with me? Now,

there's a cure for what ills

So i'm heading for the neon with this girl who caught my

eye

And her smile means more at midnight though i could not

tell you why
