[Verse 1]

I'm tired of feeling hateful

I'm tired and I can't breathe

So tired I would be grateful

If you close the door when you leave

That's me digging my heels in

That's me with the Holy Ghost

Excuse me but I don't remember

Where were you when I needed you most


[Chorus]

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


[Post-Chorus]

I close my eyes

Embrace the wave

Deliver me


[Verse 2]

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 good bye 'cause I don't need


[Chorus]

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


[Guitar Solo]


[Chorus]

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


[Pre-Chorus]

I close my eyes, embrace the wave

Abandon me

Save the day that I won't see

Deliver me
