through the valley Songtext
von SJD

Still life from the windows of cars
The smashed up milk bottle stars
As you lie in the back feeling dizzy
Dizzy from bourbon and cola

You dyed your hair and bleached your blue jeans
Just two days shy of fifteen
Now you′re drunk in the church and it's funny
It′s funny down here on the carpet


The laying on of hands will commence with a prayer
And the healing will be done
The reading of the psalm as we all gather here
It will be accomplished on earth as it is in heaven

Well they sing and they dance and shed tears
For a God that never appears
Still you stumble to the front when they call out
They call out the backsliders and sinners

And you won't have to walk through the valley
The dark of the valley without me
No, you won't have to walk through the valley


The laying on of hands will commence with a prayer
And the healing will be done
The reading of the psalm as we all gather here
It will be accomplished on earth as it is in heaven
It will be accomplished on earth as it is in heaven
