Kingdom Come by Mark Erelli

The wasp she lays an egg
Neath a caterpillars skin
It hatches and the larva grows
Feasting from within
It kills the host then off it goes
To sting another one
Seems to me theres too much misery to believe in Kingdom Come

Kingdom Come, Kingdom Come
Seems to me theres too much misery to believe in Kingdom Come

Ive a secret guaranteed
To make the theologians squirm
All it takes is time to make a man
From the lowliest of worms
We are not the pinnacle
Nobodys chosen ones
Can the minds of men be trusted with such things as Kingdom Come

Kingdom Come, Kingdom Come
Can the minds of men be trusted with such things as Kingdom Come

Once I had a daughter
She died before her time
I sponged her fevered brow
And cursed her bilious decline
I feel her like a phantom limb
Pins and needles numb
Friend I cannot comprehend what makes you cling to Kingdom Come

Kingdom Come, Kingdom Come
Friend I cannot comprehend what makes you cling to Kingdom Come

Ive known communion in conviction
And the loneliness of doubt
Does the master mark the sparrows fall
Or just let it all play out
If only for your sake my love
I wish I could succumb
Bridge the void and join for eternity in your Kingdom Come

Kingdom Come, Kingdom Come
Bridge the void and join for eternity in your Kingdom Come
