Song For Zula Lyrics - Built To Break - Ronnie Fauss

Some say love is a burning thing 

That it makes a fiery ring 

Oh but I know love as a fading thing 

Just as fickle as a feather in a stream 

See, honey, I saw love, you see, it came to me 

It put its face up to my face so I could see 

Yeah then I saw love disfigure me 

Into something I am not recognizing 

See, the cage, it called, I said, come on in 

I will not open myself up this way again 

Nor lay my face to the soil, nor my teeth to the sand 

I will not lay like this for days now upon end 

You will not see me fall, nor see me struggle to stand 

To be acknowledge by some touch from his gnarled hands 

You see, the cage, it called, I said, come on in 

I will not open myself up this way again 

You see, the moon is bright in that treetop night 

I see the shadows that we cast in the cold, clean light 

My feet are gold, my heart is white 

And we race out on the desert plains all night 

See, honey, I am not some broken thing 

I do not lay here in the dark waiting for thee 

No my heart is gold, my feet are light 

And I am racing out on the desert plains all night 

So some say love is a burning thing 

That it makes a fiery ring 

Oh but I know love as a caging thing 

Just a killer come to call from some awful dream 

O and all you folks, you come to see 

You just stand there in the glass looking at me 

But my heart is wild, and my bones are steam 

And I could kill you with my bare hands if I was free
