Tent cities, homelessness, and the ravages of a broken American system where Jesus himself would walk unnoticed. A song about losing one's spiritual heart.
I’m gonna tell ya’ll a little story, oh ya
Out on that desert road
And I believe, I might ‘a seen Jesus
That’s right, come on, here we go, HA!
Now listen!
If Jesus came down from the starry night
And saw the cars come flickering by
If Jesus came down, I swear he would weep
I pray my soul a heart to keep
Watching a man walking in black
I thought he was a ghost, but then he turned back
Freezing cold, alone with no coat
Wary of the air ‘bout to slit his throat
Sign of the time, sign of the time
We're Just mean and rotten
No fruit on the vine
Where is your heart, where is your hand
Lost and forgotten in a godless land
Back and forth alone he would walk
Between an empty field and a mountain top
No one seemed to notice, no one seemed to care
Lord have mercy, if he'd freeze out there
I seen him there four hours just before dawn
No bed, no shelter, what is the man on
Sign of the time, sign of the time
We're Just mean and rotten
No fruit on the vine
Where is your heart, where is your hand
Lost and forgotten in a godless land
I said to myself better him than I
Walkin’ on the edge of a deep black sky
The land a grave if he just stands still
The coiling cold ‘bout to make a kill
I thought for a second maybe I should care
But all I could do was watch him freeze out there
I drove past the desert to the county road
I didn’t do nothin’ to save my soul
Sign of the time, sign of the time
We're Just mean and rotten
No fruit on the vine
Where is your heart, where is your hand
Lost and forgotten in a godless land
Oh I wonder, sometimes, what’s wrong with me
Oh I was the only car on the road that night
And I looked out my window
And I saw this man
And he didn’t have no coat
He didn’t have no hat
He didn’t have nothin’
And he was walkin’
And there was snow
And it was cold
And he didn’t have nowhere to go
Oh ya
Ya see I coulda stopped my car
And I could a helped him
Because it was just me and him out there on that desert road
And all you could see was a blanket of stars
And he was kinda like walking on the sky
like Jesus
That’s what I was thinkin’ to myself
What happens if this man was Jesus
And we, we didn’t even see him
Nobody stopped to help him
Oh what’s the matter with us all now
We’re just mean and rotten
All Mean and rotten
Lost and forgotten, ya
It’s a godless land
(godless land)
I should care
It’s godless land
It’s godless land
It’s godless land
Sign of the time, sign of the time
We’re just mean and rotten, no fruit on the vine
Where is your heart, where is your hand
Lost and forgotten in a godless land
Lost and forgotten in a godless land
Lost and forgotten in a godless land
