Thirdborn (Acoustic)

from Circular Mill by Jack Griffin

lyrics

Cold and alone she lays in her basket,
Her previous owner thought her to much of a task,
Well who could have known that the daughter of god,
Lay on the steps of a drug dealer's house?

It's up for debate. 'Bout weathering this tidal state.
Helms deep it's swimming in blissful decay.
Oh hell, what's one more day?
What's one more day? The most irate display.

These intelligent mortals greeted by the door,
Wanting more, asking for the girl they've been after.
But for the last of divine, a father, who left long ago...

...From the world that she knows.
Her father left so long ago from the world that she loathes.
She's got a rapture and men in its throes.

Her delicate hand raised.
"Well I've been a trial of human error!" Pleads case.
Watch her now wipe the west. Could you have ever guessed,
That little wide-eyed, wired whore was a god forsaken saviour?

Let her see you pray, let her hear you say,
Sure singin 'I've been such a non-believer up until today! Well?'
Let her see you pray, she's singing,
"You've been such a non-believer up until today! Well now's the time to pray!"
