A Spectre in the Rays (lyrics)

When I die, just give me back to the earth

Yeah I don't mind which patch of dirt you pick for me

Yeah I done seen so many things

But now my bones push up the weeds.

When pollen makes you sneeze in spring, you'll know it's me.


I'll be carried off by bees, sail on the breeze

A yellow stain on everything

And when you're rubbin your eyes red

There aint no fret in any words we left unsaid


Cause I'm treading the skyway

The sun is my escape

I'm a spectre in the rays


When I die, just give me back to the earth

And cover me in laurels and with dirt.

Yeah I done seen so many things

But now my bones make wildflowers out of weeds

You'll know it's me...


'Cause I'm treading the skyway

The sun is my escape 

I'm a spectre in the rays.
