Starvation (Unreleased) 歌词

Six weeks since we last ate Six weeks we’ve been taught Six weeks the phone’s been ringing And now the sheriff’s at the door At two weeks my insides screamed I was coughing up blood by three By four my father couldn’t take it And hung himself in the yard from the oak tree My mother said be patient It’s what God said to her Get down on your knees and pray with me You won’t get blessings you don’t deserve See how far See how long A little will go Jesus Christ, he loves me This I know The bedsheets stained with my sister’s waste My brother’s eyes crusted shut The dogs stopped crying weeks ago With my hands digging deep inside their guts I ache all over I can’t get clean My bones start to bend inside of me But God forbid I question what he asks me to do I just hope he gets here soon See how far See how long A little will go Jesus Christ, he loves me This I know I hold my mother, she won’t hold me back They cut down my father and his broken neck They found the baby in a dirty cloth upstairs While my brother and my sister just rot One takes me in his arms and then he runs outside But they are too late now, I'm already in the light I'm the only one Jesus comes to take As he takes my hand and I waste away
