Amen (Live at Afisha Picnic, July 23, 2011) Lyrics by Hole

Afisha Picnic

2011

[Verse 1]
A devil came down and looked me in the eye
Where you gonna go?
So now place to hide
My water broke like turpentine
Too fucked up and weird a device
[Pre-Chorus]
Amen
Amen
Amen
Oh, Amen
[Chorus]
Eat the rose
And the dirt, that it grows in
And no one here really remembers your name
Saw a god and I want to go and
Everything just starts out the same
[Verse 3]
Who really knows where the ruby ridеs?
I see all those sick reflections in your ruby еyes
Oh, my little judas and my little twin
Where do you start and where do I begin?
[Pre-Chorus]
Amen
Amen
Amen
Oh, Amen
[Chorus]
Eat the rose
And the dirt that it grows in
And no one here can remember your name
There's no need
Oh, you lie till your broken
Made him hope
You remember the shame
[Bridge]
What do you want?
Make a whore unveil
Everybody knows that everything is fake
No one gets to see
Your monster, so obscene
Everyone knows what you did
[Verse 5]
Won't you deny it?
That's not a vulture thats a fucking pigeon
Starts out like magic some sick religion
And here we end with socialism
Haha!
[Chorus]
Eat the rose
And the dirt that it grows in
No one here will remember your name
My Messiah, so sweet and so broken
Everything falls beneath the change
[Outro]
Sell the river
I hope I know that I want to rise
I wait by the water, I wish you would
Wait by the door and try to take mine
Oh, oh, amen, amen
Oh, amen, oh, amen
This a man, amen
