joshua leventhal – goliath lyrics
[verse 1]
i met goliath on a day that i did not foresee
i’m not a soldier and i never expected to be
but he shouts at my kin
and mocks them as he turns his back
it’s not so much glory as honor
that drives me to act
[verse 2]
the youngest of seven
no one was ever looking at me
except the almighty
staring right through my chest cavity
the prophet man said
god looked in my heart and saw a king
but i know my heart well and
i never quite like what i see
[chorus]
and the crown is the last thing
i ever thought would grace my bow
i didn’t want it back then and
i’m not sure i want it now
i’ve got no need to follow
to follow the footsteps of kings
i just wanna tend pastures and k!ll giants
with pebbles and slings
[verse 3]
beauty on rooftops
leads swift to the den of the dead
the l-st of my flesh
numbs my heart, numbs my soul, numbs my head
the darkness is dancing
i can feel his ear-to-ear grin
well, i’m sick and i’m twisted
against god alone have i sinned
[chorus]
and the crown is the last thing
i ever thought would grace my bow
i didn’t want it back then and
i’m not sure i want it now
i’ve got no need to follow
to follow the footsteps of kings
i just wanna tend pastures and k!ll giants
with pebbles and slings
[verse 4]
well i slew goliath twenty years ago to the day
i can still feel his heartbeat
just slowly slipping away
and he was a monster
that much is easy to see
but it takes one to k!ll one
so what does that make me?
