Lyrics
Hey
Hey
Hey

When you look you see right through me
Cut the rope, fell to my knees
Fallen, broken every single time

Always keep me under finger
That's the spot where you would chew me
But I see sometime pleasure in my mind

Yeah, here comes the water
It comes to wash away the sins of you and I
This time you see

Hey
Hey
Hey

When you seek me you destroy me
Rape my mind and smell the poppy's
Fallen blood in every single time

Always keep me under finger
That's the spot where you might linger
But I see sometime the pleasure in my mind

Yeah, here comes the water
It comes to wash away the sins of you and I
This time you see
Like holy water
It only burns you faster than you'll ever dry
This time with me

When you look, you see right through me
Cut the rope, fell to my knees
Falling and bloating every single time

Yeah, here comes the water
It comes to wash away the sins of you and I
This time you see
Like holy water
It only burns you faster than you'll ever dry
This time with me

Hey
Hey
Hey
