17927 (demo) - MP3

Lyrics

CHORUS:
one seven nine two seven
shouldn't good towns go to heaven?
shouldn't good towns full of honest men be spared?
we know nobody lives forever
and we serve you at your pleasure
but the mines keep burning hotter 
lord we trust you
lord we're scared

VERSE 1:
elijah was pulled up to heaven
in a chariot of flame
we're getting pulled down into hell
the hottest town in pennsylvan-ia

CHORUS

VERSE 2:
nebuchadnezzar's fiery furnace
stoked to seven times its heat
couldn't harm those you protected
looks like we might have it beat

CHORUS

BRIDGE:
you tore down the walls of heathen jericho
you laid waste to prideful nineveh, we know
why you leveled sodom and gomorrah, too
but lord almighty what'd we ever do to you?

CHORUS

Notes

17927 was the zip code for Centralia, Pennsylvania until it was revoked by the United States Postal Service in 2002.

I am not sure about the structure for this one. Four times through a chorus this long might not be a good idea. And I like starting with the chorus, so I'm not sure where I can cut one. Maybe after verse 2. Any ideas for tightening the structure? Gabemcelwain 08:52, 28 October 2009 (PDT)
