Black Water

Well, I get high

And I get low

Oh, but that's the way

These things go

I saw my face in the mirror

Oh, I know I've changed

Though I look

Much the same

And I found grace in the black water

Bathe my soul

And tell my heart

I told you so

I lay like bait in the lion's cage

And wait for my time to come

But I'm begging, please, I need this so much

More than you'll ever know

Oh well, I get high

And I get low

Oh, but that's the way

These things go

I saw my face in the mirror

And oh, I know I've changed

Though it looks

Much the same

And I found grace in the black water

Bathe my soul

And tell my heart

I told you so
