《Jesus in the Temple》歌词

[00:00:00] Jesus in the Temple - Marah

[00:00:04] You see all black & white

[00:00:06] Like it's all so simple

[00:00:08] You always seem to me

[00:00:11] Like Jesus in the temple

[00:00:14] Your reason for complete lack of

[00:00:16] Tact is the letter of a law

[00:00:21] No honest man can exact

[00:00:24] Lately I've been waiting for

[00:00:26] Something terrible to happen

[00:00:29] Like I'm full of dread

[00:00:30] Voices in my head from

[00:00:32] All over the whole wide world

[00:00:34] I fall asleep dreaming & wake up

[00:00:37] To the screaming out my window

[00:00:41] It's just a laughing little girl

[00:00:44] Two cops in a fight on a Saturday night

[00:00:49] On a New Year's Eve by the black & white

[00:00:54] Outside my front door

[00:00:57] Comin' through my walls

[00:00:59] From the street of fear in

[00:01:01] To the sacred halls of my home

[00:01:05] I can hear the sound so clear

[00:01:09] Of a strong black man callin'

[00:01:12] And end to the year

[00:01:27] I can't relax while watching snow

[00:01:30] Or the tree glow on the wrapping

[00:01:32] I feel the pull of my own wool

[00:01:35] Pulled over my eyes napping

[00:01:37] There's got to be a prayer left

[00:01:40] In my that can set my spirit free

[00:01:44] Some pride & joy left for me

[00:01:47] She's at work I'm all alone

[00:01:49] A holiday turned in to stone

[00:01:52] Just like Medusa I cut loose

[00:01:54] And let my snake locks curl

[00:01:57] Your are holier than thou

[00:01:58] But I know I'm the fattened cow laid out for dinner

[00:02:04] For God & His girl

[00:02:06] Two cops in a fight on a Saturday night

[00:02:11] On a New Year's Eve by the black & white

[00:02:16] Outside my front door

[00:02:19] Coming through my walls

[00:02:21] From the street of fear in

[00:02:24] To the sacred halls of my home

[00:02:27] I can hear the sound so clear

[00:02:31] Of a strong black man

[00:02:33] Calling an end to the year

[00:02:36] With angry shouts & sorrowful moans

[00:02:41] With his arms stretched

[00:02:43] Out to the rage of his tone

[00:02:46] When I stepped outside

[00:02:48] It just couldn't be denied

[00:02:51] An honest man will suffer

[00:02:53] Judgment from another who's lied

[00:02:56] I reached out in the cold

[00:02:58] To hold my hand

[00:03:00] And I felt the ghosts & shame

[00:03:03] From the land where I stand
