Psalms 40:2

John Darnielle

[Verse 1]
Pulled off the highway in Missouri
And lo, our hearts were heavy laden
Made for the chapel with some spray-paint
For all the things we'd held in secret
Lord, lift up these lifeless bones
Light cascading through the windows
All the rainbow's heavy tones

[Chorus]
He has fixed his sign in the sky
He has raised me from the pit and set me high

[Verse 2]
Left that place in ruin
Drunk on the spirit and high on fumes
Checked into a Red Roof Inn
Stayed up for several hours and then slept like infants
In the burning fuselage of my days
Let my mouth be ever fresh with praise

[Chorus]
He has fixed his sign in the sky
He has raised me from the pit and set me high

[Bridge]
Each morning new
Each day shot through
With all the sharp, small shards of shrapnel
That seem to burst out of me and you

[Verse 3]
Head down toward Kansas
We will get there when we get there, don't you worry
Feel bad about the things we do along the way
But not really that bad
We inhaled the frozen air
Lord, send me a mechanic if I'm not beyond repair

[Chorus]
He has fixed his sign in the sky
He has raised from the pit and he will set me high
