Peace In The Valley Lyrics

for whatever reason you refuse to feel this space we're in
to know it's insanity
really know it
whatever your particular anesthetic is
that you hold on to so desperately
the thing I mean that makes you think you know who you are
whatever that thing is you allow to keep you sane
your ace in the hole
the psyche that keeps you from trying
to guess at what your pimp has in store for you
whatever keeps you from screaming out at this very moment
in absolute and sheer horror
whatever you fuck your brain with
whatever that is
what ever that is
is a lie
is a lie

she spends too much time with herself every night
just foolin' around with her fears
in the morning she mourns the decline of her mind
drownin' in a bottle of beer
it's to dangerous just to think about what she might have been
if she'd-a sung for salvation
if she'd-a danced on her dreams

but there's gonna be peace in the valley tomorrow
'cause tonight she's gonna blow it all away
Lord she feels so twisted
she ain't ever gonna fix it
she's just waiting for the light
to shine on a brand new day

and he don't know if he's a communist
a hedonist or a whore
spent too much time riding on a white line
to find the door
if he did and he opened it
he'd find those letters in the hall
but he's too blind to read between the lines
'cause the writing's on the wall

there's gonna be peace in the valley tomorrow
'cause tonight he's gonna blow it all away
Lord he feels so twisted
he ain't ever gonna fix it
he's just waiting for the light
to shine on a brand new day

let that light shine on

grand ol'opry lights are on
hank williams on the jukebox
we know we're comin' home tonight

I'll tell you though
I got extacy
but I need some company
you got that mystery
Lord I need a plan
all I got is this compromise
and a bag full of alibi's
Lord as empty as the bottle of whiskey in my shaking hand

there's gonna be peace in the valley tomorrow
'cause tonight we're gonna blow it all away
Lord we feel so twisted
we ain't ever gonna fix it
we're just waiting on the light
to shine on a brand new day

one more time for the people

there's gonna be peace in the valley tomorrow
'cause tonight we gonna blow it all away
you know it feels so fucking twisted
we ain't ever gonna fix it
we're just waiting for the light
to shine on a brand new day

we're just waiting for the light
to shine on a brand new day

waiting for the light to shine on a brand new day

now's the time for you to get right and repent
