Petrified Forest Songtext

Human bark
Beautyless hide from beauty
Bow your eyes 'n heads to the duty of the dead sucked to the ground
Breathe life into the dead dinosaurs
Let the past demons rear up their heads 'n belch fire into the air of now

The rug's wearing out that we walk on
Soon it will fray and we'll drop dead into yesterday
Must the breathing pay for those who breathe in 'n don't breathe out?
There'd be no gain, brother, if no one would play
