Baptisms

Back when I used to wander I was always out looking for signs But they were never there, so I'd pull 'em from the air We all believed in something But like you, I can't say why It's just a whisper in our ear, or a bottle for our fears Hold me to the light, let me shine Come hold me to the floor, and say it's alright Come hold me 'neath the water's skin 'til I'm new again And I said, "What I was thinking" Now, you can't see what's good 'til it's gone Then, there's something to be said for a place to lay your head You told me I was simple And you injured me with that piece of my mind And I listened to the creek, and it did much more for me I'll hold you to the light, let you shine I'll hold you against the floor, and say it's alright 'Cause down beneath the water's skin where we will swim And there's diamonds on the surface then And they'll come clean us, we'll both live again These days, I barely wander And I don't need no more of them signs I'll just breathe in all that air and be happy that it's there
