'twas in another lifetime
One of toil and blood
When blackness was a virtue and the road was full of mud
I came in from the wilderness
A creature void of form
Come in
She said
 
I'll give you shelter from the storm
 
And if i pass this way again
You can rest assured
I'll always do my best for her
On that i give my word
In a world of steel-eyed death
And men who are fighting to be warm
Come in
She said
 
I'll give you shelter from the storm
 
Not a word was spoke between us
There was little risk involved
Everything up to that point had been left unresolved
Try imagining a place where it's always safe and warm
Come in
She said
 
I'll give you shelter from the storm
 
I was burned out from exhaustion
Buried in the hail
 
Poisoned in the bushes an' blown out on the trail
 
Hunted like a crocodile
Ravaged in the corn
Come in
She said
 
I'll give you shelter from the storm
 
Suddenly i turned around and she was standin' there
With silver bracelets on her wrists and flowers in her hair
She walked up to me so gracefully and took my crown of thorns
Come in
She said
 
I'll give you shelter from the storm
 
Now there's a wall between us
Somethin' there's been lost
I took too much for granted
Got my signals crossed
Just to think that it all began on a long-forgotten morn
Come in
She said
 
I'll give you shelter from the storm
 
Well
The deputy walks on hard nails and the preacher rides a mount
But nothing really matters much
It's doom alone that counts
And the one-eyed undertaker
He blows a futile horn
Come in
She said
 
I'll give you shelter from the storm
 
I've heard newborn babies wailin' like a mournin' dove
And old men with broken teeth stranded without love
Do i under
