Five Years

Tape doesn't stick

with dust on the wall,

and the children can't concentrate

while your screaming in the hall.

 

You've yelled for five years

your throat must be raw,

screaming for five years

and no one's heard you at all.

 

If Jesus came now would you give up your fight?

or would He need help from Peter and Paul?

If the devil himself, came from the fiery depths

maybe his evil could silence you once and for all?

 

You've yelled for five years,

and no one's heard you at all.

How can you sing,

with your throat oh, so raw.
