[Title: BURY BOB] [Verse 1] There's a voice that talks like her. First person. Her voice. His old lines. "You're dirty." "Don't get happy." "They'll take it." "You're not enough." That ain't Christy's truth. That's an old script that learned to sound like her. [Chorus] BURY BOB. Not her. THE SCRIPT. The sentence he left behind. Put the old voice in the ground where it belongs. She gets the morning. HE DON'T GET THE SONG. BURY BOB. Christy keeps the chair. [Verse 2] He taught a child to take the blame so the giant could stay tall. Then years went by— and what was learned got fast. Thought. Heat. Defense. Before she even got the chance to ask— WAIT. Was that true? Or was that the old script running again? [Silence] Name it. Don't become it. Don't bow. [Chorus] BURY BOB. The dirt was his. The shame was never hers to wear. Look unto Him. They looked unto him, and were lightened: and their faces were not ashamed. THE BOOK IS LOUDER THAN AN OLD SCRIPT IN HER VOICE. [Long Instrumental] [Bridge] We don't dig him up to ask him who she is. We don't let an old room name this house. Put off the old man with his deeds; And have put on the new man. Christy is not his echo. Christy is not his crime. Christy is standing here AFTER WHAT HE DID. [Build] And such were some of you: BUT YE ARE WASHED, BUT YE ARE SANCTIFIED, BUT YE ARE JUSTIFIED in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God. [Silence] WASHED. SANCTIFIED. JUSTIFIED. So who gets to name her now? NOT BOB. [Breakdown] Old thought comes— THERE'S THE SCRIPT. Face gets hot— THERE'S THE ALARM. Hands get ready— WAIT. What happened? What did shame add? What does the Book say? [Silence] I can hear an old thought WITHOUT CALLING IT TRUTH. I can feel an old alarm WITHOUT CALLING IT GOD. I can remember Bob WITHOUT BECOMING BOB'S MEMORY. [Final Chorus] BURY BOB! BURY THE SCRIPT! BURY THE SENTENCE THAT MADE THE CHILD THE STAIN! She gets her voice. She gets today. She gets to receive the good while the good is here. The chair didn't move. The morning has come. And Bob— YOU DON'T GET THE SONG. [Outro] Nice try. Old voice. Old trick. We know you now. [Silence] But Christy? Lift your face. He is dead, screw him, let the dead burry their dead! [Long Silence] JESUS IS THE LORD.
