I Can See My House from Here

Jesus came to me last night
To tell me everything will be alright
He said, “Thank you for rolling the stone,
but you’re gonna have to go it alone”

His halo light up the room
Buzzed and sputtered from white to blue
He said, “Can’t keep the damn thing aglow,
even if it’s only for show”

[Hallelujah] From “Hello, Goodbye”
[Heal Thyself] To "Helen Wheels"
[Hare Krishna] Sing Hosanna
[Hope that helps] So that’s the deal

I feel like I’ve been here before
You know what happens when God closes a door
You think mortality’s hell
He’s boarded up the windows as well

I’m done with raising the dead (‘Dead)
I’d rather tour with them instead
I waited too long for my wish
Jesus Christ, I’d settle for Phish

[Hallelujah] Mother Mary
[Heal Thyself] You had me
[Hare Krishna] And no religion
[Hope that helps] So Let It Be

Turn your blood back into wine
And then forget you were once divine
And if you can’t then you know it’s a lie
Goodbye my Lord, goodbye my Lord

I really want to trade this perfect life in the sky
To make a mess of things and not know why
Camels, needles, haystacks and stuff
C’mon, don’t you think we’ve all heard enough?

We’ve needed someone like you
Self-satisfied but also easily bruised
Hey, have you heard the Good News?
We’re gonna make you King of the Jews

[Hallelujah] The dream is over
[Heal Thyself] It’s "I Me Mine"
[Hare Krishna] Won’t be same now
[Hope that helps] End of the line

[Hallelujah] I’m sick of holding your hand
[Heal Thyself] See that single set of prints in the sand
[Hare Krishna] I’d just assumed that you’d known
[Hope that helps] You’ve always had to go it alone

We’re on our way home
Going home
