Holy Water - Ben Kweller

Please

Take

Away

My pain and fear

Please

Take

Away

My pain and fear

Try to sleep but the flame keeps burnin' hotter

Take me to the holy water

The dirt below my feet sayin' my name

The dirt below my feet yellin' my name

I'll try to prepare myself for this next chapter

Take me to the holy water

When they tied you down and tell you to stay awhile

When they tied you down and tell you to stay awhile

It's like bein' betrayed by the devil's dearest daughter

Take me to the holy water

And they farm

The land

So organized and bleak

Not recognizin' when the great spirit's creatures speak

No more time

There's far too much red blood in the river

Take me

To the

Holy water

Ooohhh

Please

Take

Away

My pain and fear

Please take away my pain and fear

Callin' out for any honest helper

Take me to the holy water
