First Reformed Songtext
von M. Lockwood Porter
First Reformed Songtext
It′s been a long time since I went to the doctor
It's been a long time since I talked to God
It′s been a long time since I had a family
Who cared about me enough to make me
It's been a long time
It's been a hard year living in an icebox
It′s been a hard year living alone
It′s been a hard year sleeping in the mud
Pissing blood, waiting for the flood
It's been a hard year
Is there evil that can warrant violence?
I prayed but all I heard was silence
I could only see his widow crying
I saw his brains and ashes scattered
Was he right that nothing matters?
Should you bring a child into a world that′s dying?
It's been a hard year
It′s been a bad day waiting for the service
It's been a bad day gathering the nerve
It′s been a bad day. I courted hellfire
Wrapped in barbed wire, I heard the church choir
It's been a bad day
It's been a long time since I talked to God
It′s been a long time since I had a family
Who cared about me enough to make me
It's been a long time
It's been a hard year living in an icebox
It′s been a hard year living alone
It′s been a hard year sleeping in the mud
Pissing blood, waiting for the flood
It's been a hard year
Is there evil that can warrant violence?
I prayed but all I heard was silence
I could only see his widow crying
I saw his brains and ashes scattered
Was he right that nothing matters?
Should you bring a child into a world that′s dying?
It's been a hard year
It′s been a bad day waiting for the service
It's been a bad day gathering the nerve
It′s been a bad day. I courted hellfire
Wrapped in barbed wire, I heard the church choir
It's been a bad day
