The black dog runs at night Followed by the horse like pale moonlight Gone with the shadows before first light One last ride to numb the bite Born in between a curtained screen Ripples and flows but its torn at the seams Days in the forest and nightmare dreams All that is gold doesn't glitter for me I wish that I'd pray my soul to take My hand as I cross that fiery lake Keep my eyes up tho I tremble and shake Hold onto this hope for when I wake I wish that I'd pray my soul to keep From the fire that burns in that lake so deep Plant these words so I may reap Moonlight and Peace The black and the green The black and the green The black and the green Sing my songs to silver starlight Journeying home through this endless night I think there's a road and I think that I'm right Bleeding to the bone through this endless fight I wish that I'd pray my soul to take The lead as I crawl for my hearts sake Into those woods across that lake Hold onto these steps for when I wake I wish that I'd pray my soul to keep Pockets empty cuz the ferry ain't cheap Through those woods past that far grey beach Moonlight on leaves The black and the green The black and the green The black and the green Places I've been ones I didn't fit in Stay on my path tho I'm getting thin Drink my coffee and my whiskey from a tin I heard where I'm headed the waters wash away Everything We live in a dream green is its color Valley between one side or the other Walk in the palms hands of the mother Comforts and calms from the greed of her brother
