the question asked in order to save her life or take it
avoiding death and 'yes' would make it
'do you believe in god?' written on the bullet
say yes to pull the trigger and my sister
they didn't love their lives so much as to shrink from death
inspired in their footsteps
don't be shocked that people die
be surprised you're still alive
all heads are bowed in silent reverence
the floor is wet with tears of sorrowful remembrance
the alter's filled with hearts of repentance
perfect love kills all fear
rejoice in this deliverance
they didn't love their lives so much as to shrink from death
inspired in their footsteps
don't be shocked that people die
be surprised you're still alive
