Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Oh, my God, please help me
Knee deep in the river, trying to get clean
He says, wash your hands, get out the stains
But you best believe, boy, there's hell to pay
Yeah, you believe, boy, there's hell to pay
Saying
Come on
[Verse 2]
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, saying
[Verse 3]
I rambled with the worst of them
Fell in love with a harlequin
Saw the darkest hearts of men
And I saw myself staring back again
And I saw myself staring back again
[Verse 4]
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, saying
[Verse 5]
Ate the bread that once was stones
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
[Verse 6]
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
[Verse 7]
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
[Verse 8]
Swing, sweet chariot
Take what's left of me
A new beginning, or is this the end?
[Verse 9]
Swing sweet Seraphim
Take me back again
Or watch me make the messes of men
