Let The Records Play Songtext / Lyric

When the Kingdom comes

He puts his records on

And with his blistered thumb hits play

And with the volume up he goes and fills his cup



And lets the drummer's drum take away the pain, the pain

Breaking, Forsaken...



What's that you're taking?

Aaw, needing the feeling

He lets the records play

Should the future dim

A cigarette lights hymn



Vaporized a green light grin

And when the shot glass talks

He knows to listen up






Until he's nice and numb again

Shakened, Awakened

Not one for faking



Kneeling, his healing

He lets the records play



There's wisdom in his ways

I been down and I fell so hard and far from grace



I been hurt and I still recall the flaws on her face

I been off, but I'm on, up above my feet, my feet again

(Guitar Solo)

Shaken, Forsaken

What's that your taking?

Aaw, needing the feeling

He lets the records play

Shakened, Awakened

Not one for faking

Kneeling, his healing

He lets the records play

Oh, there's wisdom in his ways
