Well they come and pull me from my house And they drag my body through the streets And the sun’s so hot I think I’ll catch fire and burn up In the summer air so moist and sweet And the people all come out to cheer Rocks in the pathway break my skin And there’s honeysuckle on the faint breeze today With every breath I’m drawing in I want to cry out but I don’t scream and I don’t shout And I feel so proud to be alive And I feel so proud when the reckoning arrives Crowds grow denser by the second As we near the center of the town And they dig a trench right in the main square right there And they pick me up and throw me down And I start laughing like a child And I mark their faces one by one Transfiguration’s gonna come for me at last And I will burn hotter than the sun I’ve waited so long and now I taste jasmine on my tongue And I feel so proud to be alive And I feel so proud when the reckoning arrives
Three years later- I agree. I think that’s what makes him so talented when it comes to performing. You can honestly tell that he is having a blast. I appreciate how much of himself that he puts into his work.
I've listened to this full Concert hundreds of times over the last few years. Some of my favorite live versions are in it. So glad these recording are on TH-cam.
Well they come and pull me from my house
And they drag my body through the streets
And the sun’s so hot I think I’ll catch fire and burn up
In the summer air so moist and sweet
And the people all come out to cheer
Rocks in the pathway break my skin
And there’s honeysuckle on the faint breeze today
With every breath I’m drawing in
I want to cry out but I don’t scream and I don’t shout
And I feel so proud to be alive
And I feel so proud when the reckoning arrives
Crowds grow denser by the second
As we near the center of the town
And they dig a trench right in the main square right there
And they pick me up and throw me down
And I start laughing like a child
And I mark their faces one by one
Transfiguration’s gonna come for me at last
And I will burn hotter than the sun
I’ve waited so long and now I taste jasmine on my tongue
And I feel so proud to be alive
And I feel so proud when the reckoning arrives
I really love how much fun John is obviously having playing this one.

I am so happy he gets to do what he loves
