John Mark McMillan – Carbon Ribs lyrics
[Verse 1]
A thousand pairs of firey eyes
Burn like a serpent down the highway 5
As the long amber tail to Los Angeles unwinds
I've got His resurrection down inside my skin
But for all my revelating I just can't make sense of
This gravity we're in
[Chorus]
'Cause I'm a dead man now with a ghost who lives
Within the confines of these carbon ribs
And one day when I'm free, I will sit
A cripple at Your table
A cripple by Your side
[Verse 2]
A thousand miles of pain I'm sure
Led You to the threshold of my heart's screen door
To tell me what it is I'm dying for
Gravity comes like a cold, cold rain
To lead me to the rope again
But Someone is standing in my place
[Chorus]
'Cause I'm a dead man now with a ghost who lives
Within the confines of these carbon ribs
And one day when I'm free, I will sit
A cripple at Your table
A cripple by Your side
A cripple at Your table
A cripple by Your side
[Bridge]
And I sit beside You
And I sit beside You
And I sit beside You
And I sit beside You
[Instrumental Outro]
A thousand pairs of firey eyes
Burn like a serpent down the highway 5
As the long amber tail to Los Angeles unwinds
I've got His resurrection down inside my skin
But for all my revelating I just can't make sense of
This gravity we're in
[Chorus]
'Cause I'm a dead man now with a ghost who lives
Within the confines of these carbon ribs
And one day when I'm free, I will sit
A cripple at Your table
A cripple by Your side
[Verse 2]
A thousand miles of pain I'm sure
Led You to the threshold of my heart's screen door
To tell me what it is I'm dying for
Gravity comes like a cold, cold rain
To lead me to the rope again
But Someone is standing in my place
[Chorus]
'Cause I'm a dead man now with a ghost who lives
Within the confines of these carbon ribs
And one day when I'm free, I will sit
A cripple at Your table
A cripple by Your side
A cripple at Your table
A cripple by Your side
[Bridge]
And I sit beside You
And I sit beside You
And I sit beside You
And I sit beside You
[Instrumental Outro]
