I Can’t Be Seen

As I make my Noon descent
I hear my love’s been packed and sent
I can’t be seen with her, she says I’m a blasphemer
Though I try to be a good guy, she says every claim is a dirty lie
I’m stone-cold, she says I walk down a dark road
Oh Lord…

Well grab yourself a beer, my friend, and hear
I said grab yourself a beer, my friend, and hear
What I got burning in my head
The streets they gleam in red
I walk through the city steam
Like a bad dream
I’ve been deceived

I can’t be seen
I can’t be seen
Stay away from me
Let me be
I can’t be seen

Well look in my eyes tonight, these train tracks are mine
Well look in my eyes tonight, these train tracks are mine
‘Neath the lights of the starlit sky, I’m in the dark
You may say it’s a lie
Well the whole night is mine so pass around the wine

I got time, yea
I got time
Look in my eyes
I’m doing fine
I got time

Well I walk down a dark road, I’m looking for a rose
O’er European cobblestone centuries old
It’s been a while since I seen it rain
Love’s a drum of thunder and pain
Swore I’d be brave, dear Lord, now bring on your pouring rain

Then stay away
I ain’t afraid
Your faith betrays, Oh
I ain’t the same
Let it rain
Let it rain
