  • Sunday morning, skeleton tree
    Oh, nothing is for free
    In the window, a candle
    Well, maybe you can see
    Fallen leaves thrown across the sky
    A jittery TV
    Glowing white like fire
    Nothing is for free

    I called out, I called out
    Right across the sea
    But the echo comes back empty
    And nothing is for free

    Sunday morning, skeleton tree
    Pressed against the sky
    The jittery TV
    Glowing white like fire

    And I called out, I called out
    Right across the sea
    I called out, I called out
    That nothing is for free

    And it's alright now
    And it's alright now
    And it's alright now Writer/s: Nicholas Cave, Warren Ellis
