Amen

Tell me again when i've been to the river

And i've taken the edge off my thirst

Tell me again when we're alone

And i'm listening

Listening so hard that it hurts

Tell me again when i'm clean and sober

Tell me again when i've seen through the horror

Tell me again, tell me over and over

Tell me that you want me then

Amen, amen, amen... amen

Tell me again when the victims are singing

And the laws of remorse are restored

Tell me again that you know what i'm thinking

But vengeance belongs to the lord

Tell me again when i'm clean and i'm sober

Tell me again when i've seen through the horror

Tell me again, tell me over and over

Tell me that you love me then

Amen, amen, amen... amen

Tell me again when the day has been ransomed

And the night has no right to begin

Try me again when the angels are panting

And scratching at the door to come in

Tell me again when i'm clean and i'm sober

Tell me again when i've seen through the horror

Tell me again, tell me over and over

Tell me again that you need me then

Amen, amen, amen... amen

Tell me again when the filth of the butcher

Is washed in the blood of the lamb

Tell me again when the rest of the culture

Has passed through the eye of the cam

Tell me again when i'm clean and i'm sober

Tell me again when i've seen through the horror

Tell me again, tell me over and over

Tell me that you love me then

Amen, amen, amen... amen
