Crime In Stereo - Jesus Is My Ride Home lyrics

Sin first through the madness, glass and ash
Rooftop perched
Staggering captains over the backyard captive
And it's not what's so attractive
In the madness and sin
It's in waiting for the kids to ignite
So we can see what happens

Watch the place divide
Into private bathrooms, arising wide-eyed
Scissored straws, looking surprise
We can watch the commerce
Rise across the cobblestone
Selling everything from getting stoned
To being less alone

And if you want to be left alone
Endanger gutters on your own
What's the use of those
Solitary rooftop blues
When there's smoke to stain your fingers?
Chasing rafters
Raining sulfur and English on every
Pretty face in the room
Oh, the gravity of the spinning ground
It slows the growing legend in this house
Surrounds the night, closing in like
A crowd in gossip, traffic, and sound
Oh, the soul of this dying town
It comes alive when you come around

In every muscle twitch that shakes the
Dust right off your skin
Every backseat snitch
The younger kids run and tell their friends
All those things our private roof can bring
Much of madness, much of madness, more of sin

Oh, the gravity of the spinning ground
It slows the growing legend in this house
Surrounds the night, closing in like
A crowd in gossip, traffic, and sound
Oh, the soul of this dying town
It comes alive when you come around
