Fields of Coal

Well I had a dream that I received a prophecy

Predictions and vision to be written by me

But I didn't want them to come true, I was afraid

So I decided to run away

But what could I run to, where could I go?

If I showed my face, all the angry prophets would know

I rand into the wilderness, ran into the cold

I screamed why, oh why did I ever run away?

Don't disturb those fields of coal

For they may turn to gold

And if they break you, don't let them run away

With your soul

Knights in white lighting shot out of the remote

They said stand and be reckoned, I begged please, let me go

They said uh-uh, no way, you've gotta come true

We can't let you run away

But I was taught by my mother not to do as I was bid

I always tried to do good but I was just a bad kid

They kicked me out of their schools, they didn't like what I did

And since then I've always been a little runaway

Don't disturb those fields of coal

For they may turn to gold

And if they break you, don't let them run away

With your soul

I had a dream that I was an alien

And in a ship of white diamond I was encircling the sun

But the ship lost control, I got too close, and I couldn't turn away

The force of its gravity sucked me right in

But it didn't burn solid like the other suns did

Inside was a stage and they wanted me to play

I screamed why, oh why? Would you just let me run away?

Don't disturb those fields of coal

For they may turn to gold

And if they break you, don't let them run away

With your soul
