[Verse 1]
We used to go down to Aunt Peggie's house
Played in the dirt by the single wide trailer
It up the church when the spirit fell, praying in tongues of angels
Marty's on the drink again, we reach out towards him from the sanctuary
Some folks sing and shout and the room gets loud until it all sounds scary

[Chorus]
This coalescing
Of holiness and horror, addiction, loss, and blessing
Painkillers and magic
Methamphetamines and spiritual madness
I watch with the eyes of a child as it happens
Through the lens of these memories
Of whitе trash revelry
Painkillers and magic


[Verse 2]
Pеggie has a soft voice
Singing from the porch while I play with the boys
Though the fabric of memory
She stands in front of me
Gentle and sad and rejoicing
Praise be the lord's savage sorcery

[Chorus]
This coalescing
Of holiness and horror, addiction, loss, and blessing
Painkillers and magic
Methamphetamines and spiritual madness
I watch with the eyes of a child as it happens
Through the lens of these memories
Of white trash revelry
Painkillers and magic

[Outro]
Hallelujah
When I ached in the closet alone on my knees
Hallelujah
I would plead for God's mercy to wash over me
Hallelujah
I was a child and I heard nothing
But I hear Peggie sing, "Hallelujah," ceaselessly
