Deliver Me

I’m tired of feeling hateful
I’m tired and I can’t breathe
So tired that I would be grateful
If you close the door when you leave

That’s me diggin’ my heels in
That’s me with the Holy Ghost
‘Scuse me but I don’t remember
Where were you when I needed you most

And I’m tied to the sky
As you claw at my eyes
And I wait for the flood
I swim in blood
As I crawl to my knees
And I beg your disease
Taste the ice on your breath
As you catch your death

I close my eyes
Embrace me
Deliver me

Hey you, the voice of reason
Hey you, are you listening to me
It’s you that I can’t believe in
I don’t buy what I don’t see
Say goodbye ‘cause I don’t need

I close my eyes
Embrace the wave
Abandon me

Save the day
That I won’t see
Deliver me
