Cross Of Fire

Cross of fire pushed through my mailbox
 Cross of fire drips down the door
 Now cross the street to keep away, but
 Steer the street inside the law
 Guest or not from this location
 Then be brazen
 Thence be brave
 My silence shall be your salvation
 Just a trickle
 Not the wave
 ???
 See torches...
 See the forces that protect
 Control the wrong streets
 In their white sheets
 In a circle
 In a haze
 It's all a haze
 It's all the rage
 It's just my rage
 That makes me act this way
 I'm sorry... sorry... sorry...
 Please don't let those shadows search...
 My name in lights shall pose no threat
 I'll walk the line
 I'll hug the curve
 And look away with blind respect
 Cross of fire
 Splashed on the courthouse...
 Cross of fire
 Waved from a truck...
 That old judge just hurled the black book...
 Silly me forgot to duck!
