After Six

Please, keep your love away from me
Jesus, keep your hands where I can see
There's nobody here you can trust
Oh I'll break every bone if I must
Oh wisdom, keep your hands away from me

Mercy, turn your eyes away from me
Truth, shine a light where I can't see
They all practice here to deceive
I'd kill them before I believe
Oh Jesus, keep your love away from me

How far they asked, how far?
As far north as Elizabeth
Justice, take this sword and cut them down, oh down
Oh Jesus, keep your love away from me

How far they asked, how far?
As far away as here and now
