Found your notebooks after you'd gone
It's too late to answer for what you might have done
You repaired engines and polished your guns
Packing shells for a conflict that never comes
Grandma saw you with men she didn't know
What you may have done you never told
You farmed our land and kept us all close
You can live your whole life and never know
We can't move forward
Without these notions in the ground
We're treading water
We're waiting on the old dogs to drown
Playing gospel at the nursing home
Longest serving deacon the church has ever known
But old Dixie flies in your yard
These contradictions were bound to leave some scars
Maybe it was just fear of the unknown
Holding traditions we should have outgrown
It's hard to reconcile the hate that runs
Through the people you've known and always loved
My limbs are burning
The tide keeps turning

A Moderate Gospel

Consider the steps to make it in hand
Cultivated harvest in a foreign land
Machine gun protected caravan
Decapitated heads on the overpass
Up a brownstone, two flights of stairs
Did you ever consider how it made it there?
Somebody got stabbed, somebody got shot
We never gave it a second thought
You better fucking believe
They're gonna fall and bleed
Shrug with defeat, smile with your teeth
Line up the meat for the guillotine
I'm not your father but I have a son
It took 19 years to see the damage I've done
I'm not your father but I have a son
It took 19 years to see the damage I've done
Pull the trigger when the lighter clicks
Take a hit, lick the blood from your lips
The cost is higher than you'd like to admit

I couldn't leave you alone
I couldn't leave you with him
I couldn't spend the rest of my life
Knowing what might have been
They'll never understand
What has kept me in
I made a promise and committment
To stay til the end
We didn't listen to them
We took back control of our story and flipped it to rewrite the end
