A Harrowing Time Lyrics by Violent J

Bloody Sunday

2023

[Intro]
-by, you will feel it in your mind
You're allowing this to happen
Just as I am telling you they're happening
Wherever you are, see this happening
And trying to become a part of you

[Verse 1]
I was always unhappy, bitter, I complain and whine
(I complain and whine)
I never saw myself as guilty of any sort of crime
I was just a very angry individual stuck in my own mind
(Stuck in my own mind)
Shit, I was grateful to be chosen your sacrificial swine
Move on to this next from this wretched life of mine
Because death never scared me, religion a joke
(Religion is a joke)
I'd set my tongue on fire to inhale all the smoke
(Set my tongue on fire to inhale all the smoke)
I'd straight up call out the Reaper, myself I choke
(Call out the Reaper)
Neck in a noose, dancing up on a chair, but then it broke

[Chorus]
Lord is my shepherd, Lord is my shepherd
I shall not want, I shall not want
I pray the Lord my s—, I pray the Lord my s—
I shall not want, I shall not want
Satan's calling
It's a harrowing time
Satan's calling
It's a harrowing time
Hail your new king
Barreling in the sky
The demons sing
There's no ending in sight
Satan's calling (Lord is my shepherd, Lord is my shepherd)
It's a harrowing time (I shall not want, I shall not want)
Satan's calling (I pray the Lord my s—, I pray the Lord my s—)
It's a harrowing time (I shall not want, I shall not want)
Hail your new king (Lord is my shepherd, Lord is my shepherd)
(I shall not want, I shall not want)
(I pray the Lord my s—, I pray the Lord my s—)
(I shall not want, I shall not want)

[Verse 2]
With my eyes wide open, I realize I'm blind
For this thick pitch blackness has smothered any shine
(Smothered any shine, shine)
Four stone walls encase me, lathered in a hot slime
There's no doors or windows, so there goes my mind
(There goes, so there goes, so there goes my mind)
Apparently, my woes have now reached a new eternal prime
(My woes have reached a new eternal prime)
I'm gone, officially there, I'm nowhere
You become this here when you disappear
(You become this hear when you disappear)
'Cause you miss to exist, this is void of care
(You miss to exist, this is void of care)
There's no past, not blank or vast, just bare
(There goes, so there goes, so there goes my mind)
Hell's bells toll violently and vibrate my spine
My tomb spins randomly, swirling on an incline
(Swirling on an incline) (Smothered any shine, shine)
Now there's two bodies flopping in this box, which one is mine?
The other one's dead and prays in tongues, I pay it no mind
(There goes, so there goes, so there goes my mind)
And the cycle repeats while our agony increases
(My woes have reached a new eternal prime)
Where's it end if it's true? Eternity is the thesis
Will we drown as our spinning box fills with our piss and feces?
Or can we make the hot tag and be rescued by Jesus?

[Chorus]
Lord is my shepherd, Lord is my shepherd
I shall not want, I shall not want
I pray the Lord my s—, I pray the Lord my s—
I shall not want, I shall not want
Satan's calling
It's a harrowing time
Satan's calling
It's a harrowing time
Hail your new king
Barreling in the sky
The demons sing
There's no ending in sight
Satan's calling (Lord is my shepherd)
It's a harrowing time (I shall not want)
Satan's calling (I pray the Lord my s—)
It's a harrowing time (I shall not want)
Hail your new king (Lord is my shepherd)
(I shall not want, I shall not want)
(I pray the Lord my s—)
(I shall not want)
