God, love me
So completely
God love me everytime
You know that when I'm old and grey and right next to the grave I'll need you right?
But see
I know now that it doesn't take that old and grey
To be close to the grave
I feel it somedays
Through sickness or slavery
Through thickness of days unsavory
Through lion's dens and mystery
And babylon and dystrophy
I'm not the strong one that I was
I've lost a lot of days.
God, above me
So completely
God above me everytime
You know that when I'm cold and late and right next to the grave I'll need you right?
But see
I know that it doesn't take that cold and late
To be close, a close shave
That knife to my neck
From enemies or friends
Who just wanted me dead
Through orion's belt or sirius
Or aldebaran delirious
I'm not the red one that I was
I've lost a lot of paint.
Darling my lover in the heavens
Darling I've lowered to the deep
It is not water that I drown in but the hell that's underneath
Garland of promise, love forever
You know the crown that I love true
Send your lightning down to the kingdom
Where I wear your ancient truth.
God who loves me
So completely
God who loves me anyhow
You know that when I'm infantile or sinned so wild as many past years now,
I'll need you, right?
Let's hope there's light
Enough to see
Where I have died
Darling my lover in the heavens
Darling I've lowered to the deep
It is not water that I drown in but the hell that's underneath
Garland of promise, love forever
You know the crown that I love true
Send your lightning down to the kingdom
Where I wear your ancient truth.
God, love me
So completely
God love me everytime
You know that when I'm old and grey and right next to the grave I'll need you right?
But see
I know now that it doesn't take that old and grey
To be close to the grave
I feel it somedays
Through sickness or slavery
Through thickness of days unsavory
Through lion's dens and mystery
And Babylon and dystrophy
I'm not the strong one that I was
I've lost a lot of days.
