Cure Lyrics

Cure
Music & Lyrics by Jeff Black

polly's daddy was a hard shell preacher
talk about a ball and chain
the angel's wings were torn beyond repair
see they pounded it in that she was born with sin
so she almost went insane
and that's a very very very heavy cross to bear

when they spoil something inside your soul
and you just can't get it back
something takes the place of something pure
then you find you stand beside yourself
burning from the inside out
won't you lay me on the rock and let me take the cure

she points at god with a lightning rod
oh pass that bottle around
roll the dice and joke in jesus' name
never made much sense but in her own defense
she said that god had gunned her down
oh but I know now that religion was to blameJeff Black - Cure - http://motolyrics.com/jeff-black/cure-lyrics.html

when they spoil something inside your soul
and you just can't get it back
something takes the place of something pure
then you find yourself beside yourself
learning from the inside out
won't you lay me on the rock and let me take the cure

the fire hails no warning
and at the crossing there she flies
she's tossing and she 's turning
I will be there when she rises

the day came in like a silent friend
and took my tears away
I felt the light shining in my room
I was paralyzed so I closed my eyes
it took me to another place
and if I ever come back here it'll be too soon
