lyrics

I thought I heard the word of God
A crimson ball of fireweed flower
The wind blew through my skin for hours
Ten angels in a firing squad
I thought I heard a word of God
I thought I heard a word of God

Fell to the ground, I kissed the dirt
Dark blood and sweat soaked through my shirt
Turn a twisted grin at the men on guard
I swear I heard the voice of God
I swear I heard the voice of God

I saw it in my grandma’s face
A darkness filling up the space
In her gnarled hand, a lightning rod
I thought I heard a word of God
I thought I heard a word of God.

I never could pronounce your names
Oh, without feeling guilt and shame
I learned to bend, to bow and nod
‘Til I thought I heard the word of God
I thought I heard the word of God

Ten angels in a firing squad
I thought I heard a word of God
