Psalm for America

"Misfortune!" crow, we the magpies
Apple orchard, war of dreams and a black eye
Fathers forsaken, Fathers revered
To either side the other is to be feared

But I'm... not tired of you America - I sing this
Psalm in the choir for you America
Do your roads lead to Jericho
Afterglow or fire and brimstone
It is said, "Let him without sin
Cast the first stone"

For the pen is now the sword, words the sabers in a civil war
Then marching forth in divinity through a devil's door
Words of wisdom in the ink of scorn
I'm so mighty tired of keeping score, yes I am

But I'm... not tired of you America - I sing this
Psalm in the choir for you America
Do your roads lead to Jericho
Shall we propose to you a toast or atone
It is said, "Let him without sin
Cast the first stone"

Hallelujah America
I heard the conversation stop
Hallelujah America
Land of freedom... is it not

O beautiful, lest we forget
Sun comes up but we disagree if it's morning yet
For patriot dream, for some tongue in cheek
For each of us only sees what we wanna see

But I'm... not tired of you America - I sing this
Psalm in the choir for you America
Do your roads lead to Jericho
Does your soul cede self-control
It is said, "Let him without sin
Cast the first stone"
