Mission Trip
Satan drove the church van
into the belly of the beast
Las Vegas sin city stays there
God's light doesn't shine here
I study my skin stretched on bone
And realize I never felt so alone
paralyzed by John Barlycorn
drunk and full of empty storm.
I met her at the ice machine
both of us lived in between
heaven and hell after all
to her room for the fall.
skin stretched on bone
