the restoration (us) - the trial lyrics
narrator: sheriff glen elewine, 1954
the boy’s blue sneakers crunched the leaves
briars pulled my socks and pr-cked into my ankles
the sounds of cars were swallowed by the trees
as we reached a canebrake the boy began to pick up speed
through the cane there came a light
the smell of coffee
then a clearing and a cottage;
in a deck chair, a man with closed eyes
he heard our footsteps and said, “my son, sometimes it hurts to do what’s right.”
i asked about his wife and girl
he startled, then he struck a gaze that never wavered
he walked me to a crude, perfumed hut
to its side were two mounds marked with rocks, freshly dug
i pulled my cuffs, and i thought
some folks say they’ll pray for me; and other ones, they wish me luck
well, either way, i know i’m gonna need it
when the case finally went to trial
the talk of justice in the town had reached a fever
sermons preached of false gods exercised
but as he took the stand, i saw conviction in his eyes
circuit judge m. cramner:
“roman cyprus bright, you’ve been charged with partic-p-ting in witchcraft
culminating in bizarre acts of subjugation against your wife and
daughter and two counts of murder in the first degree. how do you
plead?”
roman:
“not guilty! see
in genesis 3:16, god said to the sinner eve
‘your husband shall rule over thee’
and i’ve followed that to the letter. (leviticus 15:19-30, leviticus 12, luke 2:22-40)
as god struck onan down for spilling his seed on the ground, (genesis 38:1-10)
i only followed his design when i found my wife spilling mine
and when my daughter cursed my name (matthew 15:4, leviticus 20:9) and put the word of god to blame (leviticus 24:16)
i kept the law, like abraham, but god did not stop my hand—and she stopped breathing. (genesis 22)
set against my child and spouse, revealed as foes in my own house, i’ve proved my love for him devout
hallelujah.” (matthew 10:34-39)
when they sentenced roman bright to die he cried out
“am i the only one who follows every line
of this book we call divine?
you hypocrites! false witnesses!
your faith is just a shallow lie!”
they took him out, but he screamed:
“hallelujah!”
some folks say they’ll pray for me, and other ones, they wish me luck
well, either way, i know i’m gonna need it
