It was just like the lightning Flashes East to West Just like an oncoming storm It was just like a coffin Hollow in my chest Just like the Bible, just like I'd been warned
I was tending a garden Pulling up the ****s Trying to bear righteous fruit But a man's fertile soil Satan sows his seed He could plow up your garden and plant a poison root
He came for my sister She walked and never trailed She'd follow wherever he'd lead But I took the highway I faltered and I fell He came for my sister but he did not come for me
Now I kneel at the altar Church of vacant pews In the rafters a chorus of crows They sing like a hymnal Rusted organ tunes Sing like the broken heart of one who knows
