Richard Buckner - Mud lyrics

Be careful where you lie down, boy In this bed of roses Promises of petals, then You wake up on the other end Love is such a monster, kid And power is addictive Sweet fire and beauty'll turn this city flat And could you really handle that I thought I was through with living once But, lord, the way she lies there breathing In the deepest hour of the night Unraveled, opened full and all undone by And last night we capped the cavern, dear We said the word and we're goin' down Honey you pulled out the big blue And you kissed it all through Christ, how this life From mud to miracle Is just the prettiest little burden Isn't it, El?
