Sweet Saint James

It was your car
Keep it turned on
The tires were bald
So far gone
Father said it's okay if
It keeps you movin' on
Death before dawn

So we played
All their stupid games
Boys will be boys
Bullies called you by name
Mother said with a smiling face
I'll keep you straight
Sweet James
Sweet Saint James
Sweet James
Sweet Saint James

You were hauled off in the dark an arrow and a lark
Brothers looking away
I listened as you plead deaf hated was the feed
Blind eyes and twisted faith
Sweet James
Saint James
Tell me you're a world awake
I'll tell you you were never a mistake
Sweet Saint James

Oh the world we knew yesterday
Left us high and dry
As we walk away
