about

"Killing Souls" is one of the few songs I wrote on the piano, but the banjo just sounded better when I went to record it. It is inspired by some folks I knew a long time ago...

lyrics

Billy he's a running, running to the lord
Throwing down the plowshare, picking up the sword
He came to save us, up from Tennessee,
We followed and followed, wanting to be free

He set out to preach the word
But now he's killing souls

That woman she's beside him, both her hands are soft
She smiles as she greets you, as she cuts you off
She's sent here from the heavens of this she is sure
But the life you live means nothing to her

She set out the preach the word
But now she's killing souls

They're dancing in the kitchen, dancing in the dark
Dancing in the attic, dancing in my heart
Those evil thoughts come to me, one by one
Then they run through me, and I am done

I set out to preach the word
But now I'm killing souls
Oh I set out to preach the word
But now I'm killing souls
