Eighteen

Massacre blood on a blue horizon
Roadkill shows life terror by the light
Another highway, another state
Cigarette burns me
I wake with
Eighteen wheels a-rollin'
Rollin' over my heart
Eighteen wheels a-rollin'
Rollin' over my heart
Rollin', eighteen wheels rollin'
Smoke is in my rearview mirror
Nowhere to go except forward
Cast the warm abdomen of the phoenix
Only crucifixion
Eighteen wheels a-rollin'
Rollin' over my heart
Eighteen wheels a-rollin'
Rollin' over my heart
Cats heel toe heavy on the pedal
Tie a line in my head
Blue cloud in star motion
Hand axe re-decoration
Regurgitated cattle cranial
Asleep in bile nurtured by love
Face down all babies lay asleep
Never make a sound, demolished
Eighteen wheels a-rollin'
Rollin' over my heart
Eighteen wheels a-rollin'
Rollin' over my heart
Rollin', eighteen wheels rollin'
