i never saw your face but i can tell, you're there and waiting at the right hand, satan laughs but i swear, i can hear all the saints on their way down, here come the shirts in brown and black, with the flashing lights, they're hiding, in different colors in the dead of night, they're running waller county, texas where 4,000 died, and down in jackson, mississippi they don't have to hide, but innocence is alive and it's coming back one day, here come the boys in black and white, with the kerosene, it's been the same evil power since in '63, they hang in homewood, alabama with the whitest sheets, and in montgomery county, maryland from a sapling tree, but innocence is alive and it's coming back one day, i don't think you're gonna get away, with the seal i can hear them singing, kindra chapman, brother andre jones, lennon lacy, sandra bland, roosevelt pernell, brother keith warren, brother alfred wright, we're coming back and any day now -- it won't be long. the hand that brings the gavel down, is the hand that ties the noose, the hand that finds you behind, and ties the thirteen loops, but that hand is gonna fold, the day is coming soon, when we fill it full of dust and resurrect the truth, 'cause innocence is alive and it's coming back one day
