Child of God
He's a child of God No more no less And I can't tell you why he took it Where he did but if pressed I'd have to say There was something missing something wrong Something deep down inside him And he knew it all along
Now there were signs some say Looking back today He ran these hills alone His parents gone One dead one beat down He answered to no one His the driest eyes in town But that don't measure how he sees it all When there's no one else around And that moon shines Tiny corners he finds them And the wind blowing circles In and out his mind Is that him crying Outside some window silhouette It's blood and noise and His heart's poison from the start
First Verse Repeats:
Now there's nothing moving In that dark deserted night He lays face down in the weeds And his eyes clinched tight And his ears hear all everything The shadows call he hears them sing Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Converging right here Urging him and his fears They carry him along
And they found her down In a culvert bound She was beaten she was bruised She was dead and he had used her And even the strongest Had to turn their face away Their stomachs buckle Things unthinkable Too horrible to say
And the good sheriff smiled As he jerked that chain And the newspapers and photographers They described and glorified it All so well in such detail He can't explain it or remain It just means nothing to him now
He's a child of God Tell me what that means All the empty and the angry Left out in between encompassing All I ever was or been Nothing in the eyes of God Nothing in the eyes of men
