Hell to Pay – (located at the back Tent of the Holy Ghost Revival)

Once, twice, once too many times, I find myself on the fence pondering life’s demise
The toll on the faces of passersby, whatever’s cracking the lines in their wary mind
These faces don’t hide behind some lavish excuse for what’s their right
They’re you and me, that’s who we should look up to
Not the soulless names, gracing stages for no reason
The façade beneath is war torn over seasoned

Don’t dismay, there’s hell to pay
Don’t fall slave to what they say

As you wait for the shining knight, be aware no one’s coming to consume your fright
We shy away cause someone else is in line, who’d be the one to step up and take the fight?
Why not you? You got stakes in the matter, sidestepping facts that we’ve all grown fatter
Citizen ain’t the one standing still, Citizen to gain a hand on the mill

Don’t settle on being just happy to be here and sit collecting your lovely parting gifts.
There’s actual work to be done to perceive and achieve what we call the happyness.
Squander it away for laziness, and once she’s gone, she’ll never face again this way.
Again, for so many times, this experiment’s gotta stand and fight like it was yesterday.

Welcome my friends to the Holy ghost Revival, we got a back tent, we got souls, we got demons, and devils and snake oil salesman, to get you in the mood for what you desire, the best of both worlds, we’ll drive it home and to the point, give us the power, give us the power, give us the power.
