Still It Lingers

Whoa whoa whoa

Upon this rock they built a house
It ain't no place for a young child
I've seen the terror of night and
The arrow flies by day

You should have listened to your son
Please mama let me stay at home
'Cos I don't like that kind of love
They say it's from above

Still it lingers
How could you dare?
I'm waiting on
The day that I won't even care
Still it lingers
Can't stand so much rage
'Cos it's all so far from grace

After a thousand cigarettes
I lay down alone, roll in my bed
Can't quiet the voices from the past
I don't sleep at all

I know it's been so many years
So many angels cried like me
My skin grows thicker but I know
Some wounds will never heal

Still it lingers
How could you dare?
I'm waiting on
The day that I won't even care
Still it lingers
Can't stand so much rage
'Cos it's all so far from grace

Whoa whoa whoa

Still it lingers
How could you dare?
I'm waiting on
The day that I won't even care
Still it lingers
Can't stand so much rage
'Cos it's all so far from grace

Whoa whoa whoa
