You Against You – Eric Peters

This past Friday, I drove over to Murfreesboro to hear a friend of mine, Eric Peters, play a concert. He has a song called Save Something For Grace that I love. In the first verse, he sings, “midnight / at the stroke of noon / when the lights go down / and it’s you against you / quiet eyes in a blaze of shame / like a beast of burden / you could never tame // we try to be holy without being human first.” I wrote a review of the concert yesterday for Andrew over at the Rabbit Room, and quoted some more lyrics from that song. Check it out here.
