about

Started out as two acoustic guitars, sitting at Edgewater Park overlooking the shining city. Morphed into something bigger over the years. Seems even more appropriate now than when we wrote it originally.

lyrics

God protects the meek
He punishes the wrong
We’ve fallen to our knees in prayer
Believing
My sister’s dancing naked with a needle in her arm
And men with empty wallets are leaving

You’re standing on the hill
With a bible and a flag
TV cameras roll, it’s a
New age heaven
Where distance and delusion make the cityscape look clean
But the greatness He intended is not within our means

Looking for a miracle
(In God’s Country)

We’re all his spoiled children yet we still demand the best
Which bible was it that told you we were the blessed?

Looking for America
(In God’s Country)
