about

Justin Hancock - acoustic guitar, vocals

lyrics

cobwebs like a camera lens
capturing ideals that escape our grasp
hiding the corners of our apartments
the predator's trap for prey

sing for me my sweet Angeline
tell me a story you know I'd believe
all of these shadows have tortured me
and I'm the one to blame

cause along the way we got stoned
prayed for rain the coming of a storm
god never came we all felt ignored
and walked away

god they say is our father, kind
hung up his own son on railroad ties
poured out his blood for the earth was dry
and now we all are saved

I believed in a kingdom come
redemption by death that would profit us loss
and when we were ready we'd bear our cross
and hang for glory's sake

CHORUS

said jesus, remember me
I'm crawling away lord
I cannot believe
all of these stories you once told me
ain't one lord that's gonna wash away
ain't one lord that's washed away the pain

said sing for me my sweet Angeline
tell me a story you know I'd believe
all of these shadows have tortured me
and I'm the one to blame

CHORUS

said jesus remember me
I'm crawling away lord on hands and knees
all of these stories you once told me
ain't one lord that's gonna wash away
ain't one lord that's washed away the pain
