Lyrics
A little boy in a two bedroom apartment
Curiosity in full bloom
A phone call that my grandmother answers
And shuts the door to her bedroom
Quietly try to listen from the hallway
Only hearing bits, the worst must be assumed
To eavesdrop on the conversation
I picked up the landline in the dining room
I hear my mothers voice
She’s Talking about the rapture
You hear a clap of thunder
She’s painting the picture
You get up to check on the children
But all that’s left in their beds
Is blood and pajamas
Blood and pajamas
Is Jesus gonna kill me in my sleep?
Yeah, they tried to comfort me
But all I did was weep & weep & weep
Religious trauma
Yeah I prayed the lord my soul to keep
Watching for Jesus out the window
I barely slept for weeks & weeks & weeks
