[verse 1]
jacob was a child, tried to be so good
collecting bugs and earth and pelts and bones and wood
mama used to hit him, with the shovel in the shed
so jacob hid the shovel underneath his bed

first, it was a rabbit
then, it was a deer
jacob tried to stop himself and the voices in his ears
mama said, “you’re wicked” and then she called the priest
said, “get this evil out o’ my boy, and fix this little freak”

no amount of jesus could heal his k!lling hands
first it was a rabbit, then it was a man

[verse 2]
when i saw him changing, i saw it in his eyes
i saw it in his fragile face, the contortion in his spine
i asked him was he in there, was his soul alive?
said his soul was only breathing the second something died

then he talked about great justice, the distortion of true love
the way his mama kissed him then turned and beat him up
i said, “why’d you till the grass? make all these shallow graves?”
he stood there kinda silent, expression falling blank
[verse 3]
jacob on the tv was dressed up in a suit
in the documentary, they played our interview
they clipped our conversation, to maximize the evil
i guess to draw the viewers, maybe to please the people

but all i could remember was that jacob was a child
’till his skull was cracked and his aching frame had quickly been defiled
and he had wondered why he couldn’t ever truly feel a thing
and why he searched for it in death, some elusive kind of peace

[verse 4]
well, wicked thoughts and injuries, and brains that harbor mysteries
and terrible secret midnight deeds will slowly numb the heart
and breaking minds, and innocence
and fighting wings that have been clipped
and spirits taken from and hit
will slowly k!ll a boy
