If God Smokes Cheap Cigars

If God Smokes Cheap Cigars

Envy On The Coast
(album: Lucy Gray)

I will meet you on the stairs,meet you just below the steeple
you can bring all of the people whom you think you can change.
We´ll take the elevator down and thought your flesh is unaffected
you´ll tell me just how scared you are to watch the others burn.
Watch the others burn.

And if the alter came to us, I don´t believer our eyes would shutter
tongues knotted as we stutter
over prayers we´d swore we´d say.
If it was written in that book,
all the answers to the questions
maybe we´d find the time to read it before we die,
someday before we die.

I´ll start to worry when I´m dead
I´ll start to worry when I´m dead

´Cause we might as well be blind
If seeing is believing
This parable´s misleading
you´ve got your shotgun loaded with excuses
that you´ll fire in vain.
But those 12 rounds just won´t do,
There´s barely time for pity and all the girls are just too pretty.
