Lyrics
Oh my God
Please, help me knee-deep in the river tryin' to get clean
He says, "Wash your hands
Get out the stains, but you best believe, boy, there's hell to pay"
Yeah, you best believe, boy, there's hell to pay, sayin'
Come on
Oh my God
Please, help me waist deep in the river, can you hear my plea?
He says, "Son, you come like a beggar in the street
You might make it, boy, but by the skin of your teeth"
"You might make it, boy, but by the skin of your teeth," sayin'
I rambled with the worst of them
Fell in love with a Harlequin
Saw the darkest hearts of men
And I saw myself starin' back again
And I saw myself starin' back again
Oh my god
Please, help me neck deep in the river, screamin' for relief
He says, "It's mine to give, but it's yours to choose
You're gonna sink or swim, you're gonna learn the truth"
No matter what you do, you're gonna learn the truth, sayin'
Ate the bread that once was stone
Fell from a cliff, never broke a bone
Bowed down to get the kings overthrown
And I'm all alone and the fire grows
And I'm all alone and the fire grows
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
Swing sweet charity
Take what's left of me
A new beginning, or is this the end?
Swing sweet Seraphim
Take me back again
Or watch me make the messes of men
