Letra de The Coming - Jesca Hoop
Letra de canci�n de The Coming de Jesca Hoop lyrics
Jesus
Turned in his crown of thorns today
And announced to the earth and the heavens
The end of his reign
And took a seat next to the devil and said
I need a new name
And the coming never came
My whole life
I fervently served him and obeyed
And I walked through this world full of sinners
And I kept them at bay
'Cause there's only enough room at his table
For the souls that are saved
And they're coming to shut the gate
You're too little and too late
And you can't get in on that name
But I don't buy it
I refuse to think that my best friend is going to hell anymore
And condescend to offer her a key to her salvation
Like it's something I have and can afford
And I won't blame my parents for clinging to the good word
In hopes that it makes sense of it all
And believing in a story
Like it was the bible when it was just a tale made tall
Hey ya, hey ya, hey ya
Now I wake up to the most spirit rattling scare
https://www.coveralia.com/letras/the-coming-jesca-hoop.php
As I'm losing my religion layer by layer
'Cause it's triggering all of the trip lines of the traps and the snares
It's that old device called fear, that old device called fear
Now it's the long ride through the unknown which I embrace
And the cops and the robbers
And the cowboys and the indians have got the same face
We just each of us doing our best to get by day by day
And heaven is ours to take
And our choices day by day
Bring us closer or further a way
I understood the risk that asking any kind of question
Could unravel me with one small fray
But I looked in my closet filled with ignorance
Intolerance and a fear that was turning to hate
And that is not the meaning or intention of the teaching
Or the trut turn a blind eye to centuries of conflict
And wrong-th from which the message came
And I can'doing in his name
His name
Hey ya, hey ya, hey ya
Jesus

And took a seat next to the devil and said

And the coming never came
Turned in his crown of thorns today
And announced to the earth and the heavens
The end of his reign
And took a seat next to the devil and said
I need a new name
And the coming never came

And I walked through this world full of sinners
And I kept them at bay
'Cause there's only enough room at his table
For the souls that are saved
And they're coming to shut the gate
You're too little and too late
And you can't get in on that name
