Building a God
Gonna build me a god with a golden crown
Gonna set him up high, I'm gonna burn him down
Gabriel comin' when the angels sing
Gonna pull 'em apart, I'm gonna break them wings
I just can't be saved
Won't you make my grave?
Ain't nobody comin' to save my skin
Nobody comin' to judge my sin
By the sweat of my brow, I'm gonna break my bread
Gotta build me a God before I am dead
I just can't be saved
Won't you make my grave?
They built them a god with a thorny crown
They hung him up high, so they could cut him down
Gabriel comin' when the angels sing
Gonna pull 'em apart, I'm gonna break them wings
Gonna set him up high, I'm gonna burn him down
Gabriel comin' when the angels sing
Gonna pull 'em apart, I'm gonna break them wings
I just can't be saved
Won't you make my grave?
Ain't nobody comin' to save my skin
Nobody comin' to judge my sin
By the sweat of my brow, I'm gonna break my bread
Gotta build me a God before I am dead
I just can't be saved
Won't you make my grave?
They built them a god with a thorny crown
They hung him up high, so they could cut him down
Gabriel comin' when the angels sing
Gonna pull 'em apart, I'm gonna break them wings
