After that confrontation
you left me wringing my cold hands
we shared some information
we might not recover from
and I watch your convictions
melt like ice cubes in an ocean
you were so poorly cast as a malcontent
You`ve got them all on your side
that just makes more for doubt to slaughter
`I never knew he thought that!`
I heard you say falling out of the van
`Don`t ask for his opinion
they ought to drown him in holy water`
Will you remember my reply
when your high horse dies?
We`d like to go the distance
but not a one of us is gunna
see no body is wise enough to turn this ancient boat around
these are the muddy waters
I am swimming in to make a living
that I might drown in them
should come as no surprise
You want them all on your side
that just makes more for doubt to slaughter
`I never know her thought that!`
I heard you say falling out of the van
`Don`t ask for his opinion
they ought to drown him in holy water`
Will you remember my reply
when your high horse dies?
You`ve got them all on your side
that just makes more for doubt to slaughter
`I never knew he thought that!`
I heard you say falling out of the van
`Don`t ask for his opinion
they ought to drown him in holy water`
Will you remember my reply
One finger parallel to the sky
