Lyrics for Holy Water
The sinner's in the hospital room The saint is in the bed We don't know what went wrong All we believed in is gone The city smells of vicious perfume And all we love is dead I don't know where I'm from All I know is I don't belong How long till we drink the holy water? How long can we survive? I'm on my knees begging Please let it flow This font is dry I crushed another wish in my hand I stomped another rose I don't know right from wrong All I need's new direction How long till we drink the holy water? How long can we survive? I'm on my knees begging Please let it flow I know let this font is dry If we could talk about it Sing a song about it Throw our arms around it We could make a change Or we could shout about it Start a fight about it Spill some blood around it Make the same mistakes How long till we drink the holy water? How long can we survive? I'm on my knees begging Please let it flow This font is dry I hope that you don't Ever get what you want 'Cause the silence has sung We're the intimate ones They won't look past They will only look through These infinite worlds Between me and you I hope that you don't Ever get what you want 'Cause the silence has sung We're the intimate ones They won't look past They will only look through These infinite worlds Between me and you
