wilder adkins - mecca lyrics
[verse 1]
i sought you, oh i sought you
only to find
there is no mecca that can hold you
nor any place that could confine
[per-chorus 1]
oh there is no holy city
for they are the works of man
oh but there is a holy spirit
i met him in my mother’s garden
[chorus]
singing oh, the gold and red
lit the sky above my head
i was tangled up in vines
sure that i would end up dead
[verse 2]
oh the sky cried out like a lamb
as the veil was torn apart
and the black that covered everything
it could not penetrate my heart
[per-chorus 2]
oh there is no golden temple
and i have never heard you shout
but when i break the cinders open
well the flames come pouring out
[chorus]
singing oh, the gold and red
lit the sky above my head
i was tangled up in vines
sure that i would end up dead
[verse 3]
but you found me just the same
amidst the poison and the pain
and the furrow on your brow
speaks of love i can’t explain
