Billy drove into the city every day at six am
Spent his whole life working on
The dreams of other men
Never took the chances that he always wanted to
Lived his life through heroes
And his heroes never knew
He said, don't put me in a suit and tie
When my time comes for me
Don't put me in a box
With all the dreams I never dreamed
Put me in a t-shirt and my faded dungarees
Turn me into fire into something
Unpredictable and free
Billy understood why he was angry all the time
Everybody loved him
'Cause he never spoke his mind
Got down on his knees said to his God deliver me
Take away this other man that I pretend to be
He said, don't put any words
Inside of my mouth when I'm dead
Don't put me in a box
With everything I left unsaid
Don't say anything
You don't know what was in my head
Turn me into fire, let the fire speak for me instead
Billy met a man transcended
All his hatred for himself
Billy asked him how he did this
Billy asked him how it felt
Before he got his answer
Something woke him from his sleep
Man was just an apparition it was just a dream
He said, don't play no haunted dirges
In the church when I am gone
Don't put me in a box
With all of my unwritten songs
Let me lay a while with my favorite records on
Turn me into fire
Something faithful to itself to gaze upon
Half moon casts a brilliant light
Upon the autumn leaves
Searching through his failings
Looking for his destiny
Billy took the filter hose and went into the garage
Pulled it through the window
Started up the car
Sat there with the taste of life and death
Inside his mouth
Turned the engine off and went back in the house
He said, don't put me in a column
In the paper when I'm gone
Don't put me in a box
Where I can never see the sun
Bring me down the river, let me hear the river run
Lay my ashes on the water
Let it turn me and the river into one
Don't put me in a suit and tie
When my time comes for me
Don't put me in a box
With all the dreams I never dreamed
Put me in a t-shirt and my faded dungarees
Turn me into fire into something
Unpredictable and free
Billy drove into the city every day at six am
Billy drove into the city every day at six am
