[Verse] I dodged the lightning but I'm still under a cloud Lean back if I speak too loud If I don't hide, no one can hunt me down Fell off the map, went on the run One story ended, another begun Without a home no one can come around [Chorus] You'll have to bury me standing You'll have to kick the day into the night You'll have to drown me in that boiling sea And bathe me in that cold cold light You'll have to bury me standing My suit on and my hat held tight You'll have to drown me in the ocean And bathe me in that fire's light [Verse] When I die I'm gonna sell out heaven, you can all go to hell Hanging from the clapper of an old church bell You'll never hear the one that's tolling for you I like to sit in the dark 'cause it makes my thoughts bright I like to call you up in the middle of the night To hear your dreams coming through [Chorus] You'll have to bury me standing You'll have to kick the day into the night You'll have to drown me in that boiling sea And bathe me in that cold cold light You'll have to bury me standing My suit on and my hat held tight You'll have to drown me in the ocean And bathe me in that fire's light [Verse] Song of my soul, my voice is dead You will die unsung like tears unshed But I can't lose what was never mine I may be a false king, but I am a true prophet Not gonna leave this world 'til I watch it burn Burn like the sun don't shine [Chorus] You'll have to bury me standing You'll have to kick the day into the night You'll have to drown me in that boiling sea And bathe me in that cold cold light You'll have to bury me standing My suit on and my hat held tight You'll have to drown me in the ocean And bathe me in that fire's light
