Emily

From Superfiction2011

Written by Scooter Ward

Produced by Jeremy Parker

Lyrics

Emily

There's a cross she made that has her name

In the garden by the store

With a picture and a note that says

"I can't feel you anymore"

Was it God in here

Did he make you pray

Did he burn you up

Does it taste the same

When everyone around you falls apart

Was it God in here?

Did he make you pray?

Did he burn you up?

Did he save the day?

When everyone around you falls apart

I can see her through the window pane

Trying hard not to call

When she lost her boy she went insane

She don't live here anymore

Was it God in here

Did he make you pray

Did he burn you up

Does it taste the same

When everyone around you falls apart

Was it God in here?

Did he make you pray?

Did he burn you up?

Did he save the day?

When everyone around you falls apart

She stood and prayed for our souls

Our hearts, our love to start

Was it God in here

Did he make you pray

Did he burn you up

Does it taste the same

When everyone around you falls apart

Was it God in here?

Did he make you pray?

Did he burn you up?

Did he save the day?

When everyone around you falls apart
