On Devil's Hill - Dead Melodies

In an old house on a hillside Next to the sea Far from the madness, that folds around me Peaceful and gentle, like sails on the breeze In an old house on a hillside Next to the sea There's a warm light on a cold night And clean cotton sheets Soap smellin' skin and tinglin' feet With stars linin' the skyline And shine through the trees In an old house on a hillside Next to the sea And when the autumn comes down We'll get what we need from the town And all of our friends will be round In an old house on a hillside Next to the sea Moon white as paper and night black as sleep With old things behind us and new things to be In an old house on a hillside Next to the sea And when the sunshine comes down My hair will turn golden And my skin will turn brown And all of our friends will be round

Up on the hill, down by the river By the ocean, across the field By the word of the boognish I said, "lordy lordy lord, i'm comin' home" (Lordy lordy lord, i'm comin' home) When i was younger my momma told me She said "gener, i wanna smell it." And then she smelled it and it was smelly And she said, "lordy lordy lord, i'm comin' home" (Lordy lordy lord, i'm comin' home) In a dream said he was comin' Boognish was risin' up from the mist He held the scepter of wealth and power And said, "by god, i've come to take you home." (By god, i've come to take you home) Up on the hill, down by the river By the ocean, across the field By the word of the boognish I said, "lordy lordy lord, i'm comin' home" (Lordy lordy lord, i'm comin' home) When i was younger my momma told me She said "gener, i wanna smell it."

In Bethlehem We lay our scene A city in a nation that's been Waiting for a king On a hill The city stands Ooh, not knowing that a miracle's Unfolding in its sands Holy Words had waited for Hundred years and hundreds more They didn't hear the sounding altar call Oh, open the door This is what you've waited for Under the brightest star Come the promised Savior Oh, hear the angels sing Do you hear their praises ring? The prophecy fulfilled The night was born The King on the hill The King on the hill Demons tremble Sick made whole But the stone that the builders spurned Will be our cornerstone On the hill He spoke of love Ooh, so radical, unconditional The world didn't know about Yeah, the world didn't know about Oh-woah-oh-woah-oh-woah-oh-woah Oh, open the door This is what you've waited for Under the brightest star Come the promised Savior Oh, hear the angels sing Do you hear their praises ring? The prophecy fulfilled The night was born The King on the hill The King on the hill The King on the hill The King on the hill Holy Words they spoke before Ringing true for thousands more He's the Word that you've been Waiting for... Oh, open the door This is what you've waited for Under the brightest star Come the promised Savior Oh, hear the angels sing Do you hear their praises ring? The prophecy fulfilled The night was born Oh, open the door This is what you've waited for Under the brightest star Come the promised Savior Oh, hear the angels sing Do you hear their praises ring? The prophecy fulfilled The night was born The King on the hill The King on the hill The King on the hill The King on the hill On Calvary The earth stood still Did they realize, crucified Was the King on the hill
