////////////////////////////
 If this  is redemption, why do I bother at all?
 There's nothing  to mention,  and nothing has changed
 Still I'd rather be  working at something,  than praying for the rain
 So I wander  on, till someone  else is saved
 same chords as Verse 1)
 I moved to the coast, under a mountain
 Swam in the ocean, slept on my own
 At dawn i would watch the sun, cut ribbons through the bay
 I'd remember all, the things my mother wrote
 That we don't eat  until your father's  at the table
 And we don't drink  until the devil's  turned to dust
 And never once  has any man  I've met been able to  love
 So if  I were you, I'd  have a little trust
 Two thousand years, I've been in that water
 Two thousand years, sunk like a stone
 Desperately reaching for nets that the fishermen have thrown
 Trying to find a little bit of hope
 Me, I was holding, all of my secrets soft and hid
 Pages were folded; then there was nothing at all
 So if in the future I might, need myself a savior
 I'll remember what was written on that wall
 That we don't eat until your father's at the table
 And we don't drink until the devil's turned to dust
 And never once has any man I've met been able to love
 So if I were you, I'd have a little trust
 Am I an honest man and true?
 Have I been good to you at all?
 Oh I'm so tired of playing these games
 We'd just be running down
 The same  old lines, the same old stories of
 Breathless trains and, worn down glories
 Houses burning, worlds that turn
 On their own
 That we don't eat  until your father's  at the table
 And we don't drink  until the devil's  turned to dust
 And never once  has any man  I've met been able to  love
 So if I  were you my friend
 Learn to have just a little bit of trust.
