Lightning Bolt

Lyrics for Lightning Bolt

The best years of his life is what he gave to you Never late a day he's been faithful and true Putting out the tombstones and digging down the graves For over thirty years now and I can't believe you have the nerve to say That you're gonna have to cut his pay Because one of your priests did such an awful thing Lightning bolt oh lightning bolt why don't you strike them down For what they did they deserve to be a black spot on the ground And if there is a god up there in the clouds I cant imagine a better time to show his wrath than now Some how these monsters all seem higher than the law They wont see any punishments at all He didn't give a damn about your god or your church He was just an honest man looking for some honest work And in his little finger he has more purity Than a whole church load full of your child molesting priests Its seem you're making him pay for the guilty sins Thirty years and thats the thanks he gets Its hard to imagine there can be a greater sin Than using your trust for abusing a kid As hard as it may seem well I think that there isn't You're committing it by protecting these old evil men And if there really is a judgement day You'll have a whole lot to explain Lightning bolt oh lightning bolt why don't you strike them down For what they did they deserve to be a black spot on the ground And if there is a god waiting up there in the clouds I cant imagine a better time to show his wrath than now Some how these monsters all seem higher than the law They wont see any punishment at all
