Swear there ain't no heaven
And I pray there ain't no hell
But I'll never know by living
Only my dying will tell

All I ask of living is to have no chains on me
And all I ask of dying is to go naturally

[Verse 1]
Goldenrod and the 4H stone
The things I brought you when I found out
You had cancer of the bone
[Verse 2]
Your father cried on the telephone
And he drove his car into the Navy yard
Just to prove that he was sorry
[Chorus 1]
In the morning, through the window shade
When the light pressed up against your shoulderblade
I could see what you were reading
All the glory that the Lord has made
And the complications you could do without
When I kissed you on the mouth
[Verse 3]
Tuesday night at the Bible study
We lift our hands and pray over your body
But nothing ever happens
[Verse 4]
I remember at Michael's house
In the living room when you kissed my neck
And I almost touched your blouse
In the morning at the top of the stairs
When your father found out what we did that night
And you told me you were scared
All the glory when you ran outside
With your shirt tucked in and your shoes untied
And you told me not to follow you
[Verse 5]
Sunday night when I cleaned the house
I find the card where you wrote it out
With the pictures of your mother
[Verse 6]
On the floor at the great divide
With my shirt tucked in and my shoes untied
I am crying in the bathroom
[Chorus 3]
In the morning when you finally go
And the nurse runs in with her head hung low
And the cardinal hits the window
In the morning in the winter shade
On the first of March, on the holiday
I thought I saw you breathing
All the glory that the Lord has made
And the complications when I see His face
In the morning in the window
All the glory when He took our place
But He took my shoulders and He shook my face
And He takes and He takes and He takes

But I remember you, you had a body
You had hands and arms and legs and et cetera
Did I fail? Did I fall?
(In the morning when I wake up, are you mine?)
Did I waste my time, waste my time on a broken heart?
(Take the trash out like a bad dream, are you gone?)
Or is this the start of the great silence?
(From the old house, the fiercest heart spoke, are you mine?)
Is this the start of every day?
(Christmas tree's dead, you know how time flies, are you gone?)
...
So descend into cliché
If the music has forsaken you
Roll the stone over the grave
I never liked that one anyways
Or stare into the face
Of whatever it is that's facing you
And if the levee breaks
You'll find out what it is that's replacing you
And when the mirror breaks
I wouldn't miss it for the world
Call it blackstar
Call it painstar
The same thing happens when you touch it
Did they tell you what happens when you touch it?
Did they tell you what happens when you touch it?
Did they tell you
Did they tell me
What happened to you?
...
For now we see only a reflection as in a mirror;
Then we shall see face to face.
Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known
And now these two remain
...

Somehow their name sticks out
When I'm out on the town hanging around
A man with a sign who stand under a sign
Of a picture of pleasure as I put it together
