Lyrics
Black Bear

With this body, he is God and I am nothing
He has come for the blood of my only son
I can sense his heart beat slowly fade
The sound of my voice is his way to me
I buried my tongue with my families bones
As they lay me down to sleep
I pray to the Lord to put me six feet deep
Put me six feet deep!
Father forgive me for I have sinned
I know that we will all meet our fate
Even the beast of the underworld
Burns eternally within his own flame
Save my son, feel my embrace
Sleep my son
Feel my embrace
Please don’t forget my love
As the bullet goes through his brain
I wake up to live it again and again
As they hang me down to sleep
I pray to the Lord to put me six feet deep
Put me six feet deep!
Pray to the Lord to put me six feet deep!
