lyrics

Quietly building a compelling ending,
but you're never gonna rest at all
in bed at the hospital.

Stories and wisdom, paperback fiction,
your keys are in the kitchen.
I'll leave them there in the bowl,
or on the hook at the end of the hall.
I can take them down when they start to rust.

Death has no respect for us.
Death has no respect for us,
but it fears our God and it fears His love.
Death has no respect for us.
Death has no respect for us.

Looking for healing, compassion and reason,
but the keys to the kingdom - they're not for sale.
And the world has gotten stale.
So you bite your tongue, but it tastes like rust,
and your lungs still work, but they're filled with dust.
If you can't find truth, can you start with trust?

Death has no respect for us.
Death has no respect for us,
but it fears our God and it fears His love.
Death has no respect for us.
Death has no respect for us.

Get On with It

Black Luck is my band. We have three records and our fourth is on its way. It's very different from my solo stuff, but let's be honest. It's also WAY better. John Benda
