Come lie next to me Jesus Christ

holes in hand where a cross used to fit just right

the meeting called...the topic: a ladies fate

you don't have to remind me

I won't be late



please excuse me, I'm sorry, I just can't wait

and don't use grandfather as the bait



down the hall a baby boy just born

rosaty around a crown of thorns



please excuse me, I'm sorry, I just can't wait

and don't use grandfather as the bait



no...



can't you see the lady's not ready

hands and feet are bound and unsteady

in the hall the family's grieving

I'm the one who stays

I'm not leavin' yet
