Uriah Songtext
von Bad Luck Pearl

I′ve never done
Anything half as bad as David did
Half the weight of David's sin
I never wrote
Altogether half the poems that he sang
Written half his worshipped pains
I′ve never known
Anything half as surely as he knew
Seen through to that edge of truth
I saw her there
I thought, send Uriah to the front
Cut my hair and tie me up


My body
Is weak enough to need you
Pluck out my eyes
I'm sorry
Pick me out beneath you
Held by the spine

Give me that power
Maybe half of what he had that day
Put my spirit on display
And from that tower
I promise I will fail your cause
Fall into the serpent's jaws
I′ve never known
Anything half as surely as he knew
Seen through to that edge of truth
I saw her there
I thought, send Uriah to the front
Cut my hair and tie me up


My body
Is weak enough to need you
Pluck out my eyes
I′m sorry
Pick me out beneath you
Held by the spine
