Who writes those words on your wall
Telling you where you may go
Do you draw those patterns on your floor
Showing you where your thoughts may roam

Those dreams have left Cairo
They're in the gutter on the Belleville city line
She hasn’t thought about the next life
But no one here seems to fit her right

So I’ve gone from Guilt
Right down to nothing
Now I’m back in Guilt
All for nothing

It’s a long way to the east
You weren’t given much to read
Except the visions of the west end
Of town where we will meet

You will lay me down in the lake
And we will walk along the banks
Right next to the lady
Alone while we are waning

So I’ve gone from Guilt
Right down to nothing
Now I’m back in Guilt
All for nothing

Don’t dig a place in your heart
For me to walk upon
Fall down and fall asleep
Just let me be a part
Of your fine, wide open sky
