Hand Me Down

from Whiskey Soaked Guitar by Marcus Lazarus

/

lyrics

Drifting along with the tide
Their eyes were open wide
Trying hard to speak
For the silent and the weak
But they looked with envious eyes
For the hope that they despise
Creating holy ground
Relief for the lost and found
A prophecy?
A hand-me-down …

Feeling alone in a crowd
Your silence is too loud
Waiting for rain to flow
Like a Rose of Jericho
Obey or suffer his wrath
Like a brain dead psychopath
Blessed on Holy Ground
To God you will be bound
A prophecy?
A hand-me-down …

Kneel and repeat after me
The book of hypocrisy
Dare to question the lies
And you will be crucified
Taking the bread and the wine
Subservient divine
Lay in the holy ground
A legacy profound
A prophecy?
A hand-me-down …
