Jessie's Army

from Faceless Entities by Jet Rodriguez

/

lyrics

Piecing you up in my head from lies I had been told
Shaping scenes around you in a place I'd never go
Suddenly defeated by a sin you used to know
Running off with Jessie to a room you used to go

I want you wrapping your black wounds in my cotton gauze
I'm here to firmly remind you I'm your lowly cause
I will set out to untie you from your mother's laws
And lay you down in the terrace til the winter thaws

Brethren of the chosen ones, I'll send to you a light
She will come on clouds of glory eager in the night
Arriving to the of boom of trumpets, raising up the dead
Leaving all who followed her with nothing there instead

I want you wrapping your black wounds in my cotton gauze
This is me freeing your demons and then drawing staws
I'm here to endlessly bind you in my giant claws
I'll always yearn to design you with my rotten jaws

Jessie's army marched along the river down below
Sounding off to what a merry future they would know
