Lyrics

I can feel you in my bones
I’ve never felt this all alone
Theres an empty that I can’t describe
I crossed the plains and the ocean wide

Try to fly straight but theres damage done
Get on my knees
Holy ghost father son
I am broken bleeding like a sieve
I gave her all that I could give
I know you work in peculiar ways
but I don’t feel no hope these days

I’m sure somehow I’ll be OK
Just make it through another day
I’m sure your light will show the way
I’m right here now I think I’ll stay

Try to fly straight but theres damage done
Get on my knees
Holy ghost father son
I am broken bleeding like a sieve
I gave her all that I could give
I know you work in peculiar ways
but I don’t feel no hope these days
