They found my body near the river Now all the people in our town, they think it was your father I didn't get your consent, but that's how I make my rent The void; it's hard to make a friend When it's too hard to put down the lense And so, I float
Drifted 'bout 50 miles past Jamestown I was recovered in the more where I floated onto shore While the James was good for me, And the barbed wire, that's another story It's hard to rest in peace When you can't get no sympathy
And so...
I can't seem to keep my mind off that inght The way that you left with all your friends Beneath the bar lights. I couldn't help but hate you So I followed you, I followed you home
And oh, take off your clothes, stand by the window So I can see the scar that sits below your naval And oh, with the Rosary, I wish that was me How I wish I could rest upon your chest forever I float, I float, I float.
I wish that I believed in heaven I can't thank Sunday School for that. Send me a seven digit pin code Let me repent, let me believe.
We learn what we can comprehend The folding of our hands, the bending of our knees And the Hial Mary's along the bedside My innocence must have caught his eye Enough to ruin the last 16 years of my life It's so hard to repent When you've been giving no such reason to believe
I took off my clothes, stood by the window Well don't you see the same scar sits below my naval? And oh, but it's there for life, Better yet, the lack thereof How I wish I could come back as a piece of jewelry.
