  To  lessen my troubles
  I stopped hanging out with vultures
  And empty saviours like  you
  I  wish I had a nickel  for every miracle
  That you easily tricked me  into
  You  can lead  a  horse to water
  But  fate is another  matter
  So  don't you surrender
  Cause sometimes  salvation
  In the eye  of the  storm
  Sister  do you want to try  and  find  me
 I've no time for accusations
 Or conversations
 On all the bad, bad things that you do
 Just a note from the jailer
 Drugs and the relation
 To all the people around you
  I've  kept secret your superstitions
  And all its twisted  wisdom
  That I fell  into
 Sister do you even want to try and find me?

 To lessen my troubles,  stopped hangin' out with vultures
 and empty saviours like you
 Oh I wish I had a nickel  for every  miracle that you easily tricked  me into
You  can lead  a horse to  water
Oh  but faith is another matter
Oh,  so don't you surrender,  oh no no
Cause  sometimes  salvation  in the eye  of the storm
 Sister did you  want to try and  find me
I've  no time for accusations  or conversations  on all the bad, bad things  that you do
Just  a note from  your jailer,  drugs  in the relation  to all the people  around you

Ow!  I've kept secret  your superstitions  and all its  twisted wisdom  that I fell into
 Oh so don't you, so  don't  you surrender, no,no,no,no
Sometimes,  sometimes  salvation, sal  - vation  in the eye  of the storm
 Sister  do you want to try  and find me?
Hey  sister hey  do you want to try  and find me?
