Let the Guitar Keep Playing

Let the guitar keep playing
As the silver rain falls,
Let it smooth out the cracks,
And replenish the plants.

Let the guitar keep playing
As the blood runs near,
Dig up the purple pain,
And drown out the sorrow.

Let the guitar keep playing
As the gun shot goes in,
Grip tightly to the vulture,
And spin it's ass to the ground.

Let the guitar keep playing
As the neon lights enter,
Tenderize the broken love,
And kiss it goodbye.

Let the guitar keep playing
As the wild wind blows,
Hear it whisper in your ear,
And cut it by the throat.

Let the guitar keep playing
As it runs into the soul,
Lock it up with a special key,
And destroy it forever more.

Let the guitar keep playing
As the band ends the song,
Those notes of truth will continue forever,
From the deep dark depths of the heart.
