John left himself in the river
As hes drowning a man of God
He knows now that the people wont listen
Until Yahweh is weeping their blood
John sees himself in the water
Under the locust moon
In the dark desert his Father
Rubs the red salt in his wounds
Hold down
Underwater
What you feel the most
Take it
To the river
To the Holy Ghost
Make this
My last day of pain
Just make this
My last day of pain
Mary nailed her heart to a cross
When she killed that temple dove
And spread its blood on her screaming baby
She knew then they would never give up
Now Mary waits at the edge of the city
with her Father and the locust moon
Two women bring the shadow of her baby
She wets her palms in the tears of his wounds
Hold down
Underwater
What you feel the most
Take it
To the river
To the Holy Ghost
Make this
My last day of pain
Just make this
My last day of pain
I’m still alive but
I’m still a liar
I’m still alive but
I’m still a liar
I’m still alive but
I’m still a liar
I’m still alive but
I’m still a liar
