Sheridan Cosy Grand Design A BAD CLICHE Cosy Sheridan: acoustic guitar & vocal John Pierce: bass Ricardo Monzon: percussion Rick Harris: banjo i have an uncle, he's a dirty old man. i grew up with a bad cliche i have learned to find other things to do on family holidays i have tried to love the sinner and only hate the sin but whoever wrote that never got caught in a dark corner with him i keep a baseball bat under my bed and i always leave on a light the same time each year i get up and check the locks sometimes three times at night and if God helps those who help themselves where was God in my formative years Why give me a voice to call out with and then deafen so many ears? i have tried to forget his breath, i have tried to forget his hands the mechanics don't confuse me like they used to but I still don't understand the 9-year-old she was frightened the 12-year-old learned not to care stick a sharp thin knife long into her heart she could not even feel it was there and there's a patch of skin between my shoulder blades that's still just a little bit numb it seems to be there to remind me of the destruction i have undone i try to love the sinner but it's more than the sin will allow i've looked a long time into the dark, hoping the truth would show me how |
