Redemption

She took the fire as she was leaving

No forgiveness and no confession

Now I'm sifting through the cold grey ashes

Looking for peace in my redemption

She was my secret and I was a sinner

Had to whisper our confession

Went to the well and looked in the mirror

Raised a glass

To my redemption

How long till I drink from the fountain?

My redemption

How high till the top of mountain?

(How long?)

How long, how long, am I wrong?

(How long?)

(Ah, ooh)

Beyond redemption

Bullets flying out of nowhere

Reaching out with no exceptions

Another preacher cries on the TV

Wants my money

And my redemption

How long till I drink from the fountain?

My redemption

How high to the top of the mountain?

(How long?)

How long, how long, am I wrong?

(How long?)

(Ah, ooh)

Beyond redemption

Save me

Won't somebody save me?

Down in the valley

Try to rise up

Won't somebody?

Somebody

Save me

No salvation in an empty promise

Hollow wall with no protection

I have to kneel at the altar

It's the last chance

For my redemption

How long till I drink from the fountain?

My redemption

How high to the top of the mountain?

(How long?)

How long, how long, am I wrong?

(How long?)

(I hear you calling it now)

(I hear you calling it now)

Oh, you hear me call

(My redemption)

Oh, can you hear me calling?

(My redemption)

One last chance for my redemption

(How long?)

How long, how long, am I gone?

(How long?)

(Ah, ooh)

Beyond redemption

Can you hear me calling?

Oh
