18 Bullet Holes Lyrics - Singles - Waterdeep

18 bullet holes in the body of a priest 

They say he was eating a hot dog when the ammunition was released. 

They say he was always fat and lazy but he was an awfully nice guy. 

That's just one more death to show you you never know when you're gonna die. 

You might be facing the beast 

Sometimes, God, I feel like I'm living in a bone grinding mill 

And every time I hear the sound I can barely stand still 

It's a thing I can't quite make out sometimes but it seems to keep getting louder- 

One more body from the valley of the dry bones getting ground up into powder 

Against Your holy will 

Oh, God, it hurts so bad to love anybody down here 

Why don't You come and help me out? 

Cause I can't even see clear 

The funny thing about the way a girl gets destroyed 

About the way that deal goes down 

Is that everybody pretty much sees it coming at the sister 

From all the way across town 

And she isn't always blinded, she isn't always far astray 

She just might not be thinking, she might be having a bad day 

But when you choose, you choose, and when you drown, you drown 

Last night I dreamed that You swallowed me into Yourself 

And I was floating on the sea inside 

When I landed on the shore, I saw all these people that I thought had died 

I hadn't seen some of them for ages 

They had left without a single word 

And when I said something to them, not a single one of them had heard 

They were all looking right through everything like it wasn't even there 

Some were full of anger, some full of fear 

And then I recognized that something very sad 

But very beautiful was happening right here 

They were all caught outside standing alone in a very heavy rain 

And when a raindrop landed on my tongue 

I didn't need You to explain 

That these were Your tears 

Oh, God, it hurts so bad to love anybody down here 

Oh, that's right, You know so well 

One thorny crown, three nails, and a spear 

One thorny crown, three nails, and a spear
