Someone Purer

I was gripped with a bitter fear Worried the one thing that I loved Back when I was just a kid Might now never be enough That the body I was in Might belong to someone else Someone kinder, someone surer Someone innocent, young and beautiful Someone purer. I was scratching at my skin Hoping the changes would begin But what layed beneath was blood Well, of course! What the hell was I thinking of? Won't you take me down to the creek To wash away our sins and sleep? I feel so tired, as though I might not wake at all on the other side That's no way to go. Oh, my dear one Bathe me in your glow Cut out my lonely heart And bury it in the snow Nothing really means nothing It's the saddest thing I know So deliver me from sin And give me Rock'n'Roll Ooh, ah, oh, oh, oh, ah Ooh, ah, oh, oh, oh, ah. Give me Rock'n'Roll Ooh, ah, oh, oh, oh, ah Ooh, ah, oh, oh, oh, ah And in the morning there'll be hope And in the morning there'll be light And if I sleep I'll dream up a system A solution to fend off perils of the night Come on in I'll be born again Born again as someone else Soneone kinder, someone surer Someone beautiful, someone purer And when I am you'll know When I am you'll know Oh, Mighty one The devil knows my name Will salvation come To wash away my pain? For I was once a kid With a pure and innocent soul So deliver me from sin And give me Rock'n'Roll Ooh, ah, oh, oh, oh, ah Ooh, ah, oh, oh, oh, ah Ooh, ah, oh, oh, oh, ah Ooh, ah, oh, oh, oh, ah Give me Rock'n'Roll Give me Rock'n'Roll And a pure and innocent soul And a pure and innocent soul Give me Rock'n'Roll Give me Rock'n'Roll And a pure and innocent soul And a pure and innocent soul And a pure and innocent soul
