Amen - Chel

Sat on the floor of an empty church

Thinking, «once it’s abandoned, what’s it worth?»

For the people and the memories fade away

What can we hold on to?

What can we even say?

To one another when we all need a break?

To one another, we all take and take

Until there’s nothing left, with no humanity

And we all need a miracle to believe

Give me my chalice and I’ll take a sip

And as the blood runs down, it goes drip, drip

Give me my altar and I’ll make it quick

And as the words fall out, they go drip, drip

Amen

Amen

(I prayed again)

Amen

(I prayed again)

Amen

When I think of all the people that came before

With all the beliefs they died for, war after war

It makes me sick to my stomach

I get sick to my stomach

Cause it was rape and destruction all around

Lose the blood to the ground, no one’s safe, no one’s sound

And now we choose to relive it

How do we choose to relive it?

Give me my chalice and I’ll take a sip

And as the blood runs down, it goes drip, drip

Give me my altar and I’ll make it quick

And as the words fall out, they go drip, drip

Amen

Amen

(I prayed again)

Amen

(I prayed again)

Amen

Give me my chalice and I’ll take a sip

And as the blood runs down, it goes drip, drip

Give me my altar and I’ll make it quick

And as the words fall out, they go drip, drip

Give me my chalice and I’ll take a sip

And as the blood runs down, it goes drip, drip

Give me my altar and I’ll make it quick

And as the words fall out, they go drip, drip

(I prayed again)

Amen

(I prayed again)

Amen

(I prayed again)

Amen

(I prayed again)

Amen

Amen

Amen
