All alone, all alone
All alone, all alone
All alone, all alone
All alone, all alone
All alone, all alone
All alone, all alone
All alone, all alone
All alone, all alone
All alone, all alone
All alone, all alone
All alone, all alone
All alone, all alone
Leviticus, oh
Deuteronomy
Snatch a piece of my wonderin'
Distant-far like yonderin'
Skin of my tooth like
Skin of my boot like
Fly in my soup like
Where's the waitress?
Can't take this, really, can't finish this?
These years and all these creatures
It's my mistake, I'll make it
J-dub to the boom now make it
Bounce-wiggle bounce-wiggle
Shakin' all them bangs out
Chemical cutthroats
Bound to blow the brain out
Cut to the brain
This ain't no game
I'll show no shame
I'll birth this blame
I'm twisted Cain
I'll twist again
I'll push the blade
As plain as day
Known to what these sayers say
Known to what these doers do
It's you and who and you-know-where
We's about to take it there
We's about to make it clear
We happy or we lonesome
The long jump, the beat heart, from start to finish
Ten spoons of spinach
The soul and the spillage
The cup that runneth ovah
We turn up the o-god
All alone, all alone
All alone, all alone
All alone, all alone
All alone, all alone
All alone, all alone
All alone, all alone
Close your eyes and see
When there ain't no light
All you'll ever be
Come and save the night
'Cause I don't leave
When the morning comes, it doesn't
Seem to say an awful lot to me
All alone, all alone
All alone, all alone
All alone, all alone
All alone, all alone
All alone, all alone
All alone, all alone
All alone, all alone
All alone, all alone
All alone, all alone
All alone, all alone
All alone, all alone
All alone, all alone
All alone, all alone
All alone, all alone
All alone, all alone
All alone, all alone
All alone, all alone
Leviticus, oh
Deuteronomy
Snatch a piece of my wonderin'
Distant-far like yonderin'
Skin of my tooth like
Skin of my boot like
Fly in my soup like
Where's the waitress?
Can't take this, really, can't finish this?
These years and all these creatures
It's my mistake, I'll make it
J-dub to the boom now make it
Bounce-wiggle bounce-wiggle
Shakin' all them bangs out
Chemical cutthroats
Bound to blow the brain out
Cut to the brain
This ain't no game
I'll show no shame
I'll birth this blame
I'm twisted Cain
I'll twist again
I'll push the blade

All alone, all alone

All alone, all alone
All alone, all alone
All alone, all alone

'Cause I don't leave
When the morning comes, it doesn't
Seem to say an awful lot to me
All alone, all alone
All alone, all alone
All alone, all alone
All alone, all alone
All alone, all alone
All alone, all alone

I have just listened to the song on repeat while I read all the comments above and cannot help seeing 'Spank Thru' and 'dross' as definitely the most convincing descriptions of the song. Of course there is an element of take what you get, but there is a distinct poetic design in this song.
It is extremely intelligent in its creative structure and the words - when read through the eyes of someone caught in a war-zone snatching their feet away from the jaws of Hades, suddenly confronted by the brutality and ungodliness of life - it carves a greater, human imagery than most modern music. It is at a time like that when you ask truly 'Where is God? If I am gone tomorrow where will I go?'
