Junkyard
Saw a movie where a guy kills another guy twice
Don't know if I can forget about it
Saw a guy finish a fight with a butcher knife slice
Pretty sure I won't forget about it

Is it okay if I say, my mind is not a junkyard
My heart is not a dump for all the gunk around
My spirit's not a junkyard
No, it's holy ground

Saw a photo on the net, can't believe what I see
Don't know if I can forget about it
Two kids where playing in some dirt that'll never come clean
Wish to God I could forget about it

No one's safe till we all say, my mind is not a junkyard
My heart is not a dump for all the gunk around
My spirit's not a junkyard
No, it's holy ground

Wanna keep, keep the temple clean
Gotta keep, keep the temple clean
Try to keep, keep the temple clean
How I do I keep the temple clean

A vicious rumor went around, wrecked my uncle John's life
Guess he never could forget about it
No one's safe till we all say, my mind is not a junkyard
My heart is not a dump for all the gunk around
My spirit's not a junkyard
No, it's holy ground

Is it okay if I say, my mind is not a junkyard
My heart is not a dump for all the gunk around
My spirit's not a junkyard
No, it's holy ground
