Lyrics
Son Of God
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I've been here forever in the cold
Waiting in the weather while you
Go out searching for our gold
But nothing lasts forever I've been told
Nothing lasts forever, oh
But some of this shit's gettin' pretty old
Oh oh oh, it's the son of God
Come down and tell me, water to my face now
Oh oh oh, it's the son of God
Ridin' down from [?]
Oh oh oh, and I'll be good, I'll be good
I swear I'll be good
But still you don't believe me
As if I would be lyin', as if I was suspect
As if I was not crying, as if I was not forgiven
For my sins, as if the mirror's broken
And I would get no chance on that side again
Softly and so sweetly, whisper near
Softly and so sweetly, because
You never know when it's gon' off with you
Well, if you're gonna shake me, say my name
And if you're gonna blame, well then, lay the blame
Lay the blame
