Righteous Seed Songtext
von Extra Life

The picketer told us
Don′t kill your kid
In another world we didn't
But in this one we did
The drunk words of a Jesus freak
Make me dream about our baby
The blunt force of a man′s belief
Makes me dream of what we buried

I held your hand as our girl was born
She had your mouth and she had my eyes
We taught her to sing, to sing
And how to play the piano
By your side I held your hand
By your side I stood like a man
We raised up a righteous seed to heaven
We raised up a righteous seed together


The picketer told us
Don't kill your kid
In another world we didn't
But in this one we did
The drunk words of a Jesus freak
Make me dream about our baby
The blunt force of a man′s belief
Makes me dream of what we buried

By your side as our boy was born
We loved our new and glistening friend
Not in love, never in love
No longer even lovers
Still I held your hand as a friend
Still I stood by you as a friend
We raised up a righteous seed to heaven
We raised up a righteous seed together

The picketer told us
Don′t kill your kid
In another world we didn't
But in this one we did
The drunk words of a Jesus freak
Make me dream about our baby
The blunt force of a man′s belief
Makes me dream of what we buried


God knows we did no wrong
But something has died
Thank God we have a choice
But something has died
I'm by your side if you need to cry
God knows we did no wrong
But something has died
Thank God we have a choice
But something has died
I′m by your side if you need to cry
I'm by your side if you need to cry
I′m by your side if you need to cry
I'm by your side if you need to cry
