And the Revelation. Lyrics
...And the Revelation
Bryan John Appleby
This is taken from Bryan's Chapel session and his Classroom session.
Intro (this is also how C/G and Em are played in the first verse):
I saw a white-haired child, staring out through hollow gray eyes
I saw men that come to early ends, men who flicker, dim, and die
I saw a kerosene skyline from the suburbs of the city on a hill
I heard the clatter of the coin and the yawning of the few that have their fill
And the sun, it is a blister, rising like the dead
I drag my shadow behind me, and I drag my body to the edge of my bed
With my palms pressed to my eyes, I pray this one last time
If you're someone else I might love you still, but as it is we're done
Oh and you, you will not dig a hole in me
You will not chop down my tree
Or hold me under the water
No and you, you will not dig a hole in me
You will not chop down my tree
Or hold me under the water
Hold me under the water
Hold me under the water
Hold me under the water
Hold me under the water
Outro (still singing "Hold me under the water"):
