A Ballad For Jimmy Bakker Lyrics

Order Of Elijah A Ballad For Jimmy Bakker

lights out your heart has stopped burning
this is the dance of the dead
I've seen the wave of a new age
your empire crashes down (x2)

I saw her lying there, ohhh and I took her by her cold dead hand
I looked her in the eye and this is what I said:
For this is what you had coming (x2)

(samples)

Scars that line the legacy's hand
and now genocide's made us
the plastic voice you cling to
plagues your very soul
you cant deny that you have turned your back on the only thing that gave you life

Witness as the movement comes to life
You just got to see beyond your lies
You just got to see beyond your pride
open your heart

I wage a war upon the sky in hope she'll never wake again
We cant put new wine into the old shattered skin
still you cast your hearts aside as if the enemys not alive
like you cant read the words when their slit across your wrist
place your bets, this is a knife fight, until we all die
we'll sacrifice the living then have a slice of pie
talking in my sleep to the theives that bear my wound
but then I watched her be reborn here right before my end

We wont relent until we die.
