lyrics

Dear Joanna, wandering fire
Now heavy with a child
Or is it something vile?
I rode to The Wall but I turned around
Because I know lost souls are bound
To The Healer’s power

Dark water
Been rising
Now winter’s
Arriving
But sleep soundly
‘Cause I’m sure the cure is on it’s way
At least the radio say

What’s that screaming in the street?
And should I be worried
When the newsman’s on repeat?
Don’t I know that song?
If this fear’s a ladder
Then we stand on the last rung
Photophobia’s in my blood

Dearest Daniel, hear my cry
I only did what’s right
When I left that night
You could not deny that something had changed
And we knew it when they named
The venom in my veins

Dark water’s
Been flowing
My belly
It’s been growing
But sleep soundly
‘Cause I’m sure The Lord will be my guide
To The Healer’s side

What’s that screaming in the street?
And should I be worried
When the newsman’s on repeat?
Don’t I know that song?
If this fear’s a ladder
Then we stand on the last rung
Photophobia’s in my blood

I throw roses over The Wall
Do they float or do they fall?
And will you hold on?
Keep your body strong
‘Cause they say they’ll have a cure
Before the month is done

Now
I wander through the dark
Know you’re carrying my heart
As you carry my son
My sweet Joanna (My sweetest Daniel)
She’s lost beyond (Come find me past) The Wall

And now
Where’s that screaming in the street?
You know it’s grown so quiet
I think the newsman lied to me
Ain’t that the same old song?
So I’ll climb this ladder
And I’ll jump into the flood
Photophobia’s in my blood
