Salvation (Early Mix) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
To all those people doing lines
Don't do it, don’t do it
Inject your soul with liberty
It's free, it's free

[Verse 2]
To all the kids with heroin eyes
Don’t do it, don't do it
Because it's not, not what it seems
No, no it's not, not what it seems

[Chorus]
Salvation, salvation, salvation is free
Salvation, salvation, salvation is free

[Post-Chorus]
Uh-huh-huh, uh-huh-huh, uh-huh-huh, uh-huh-huh
Uh-huh-huh, uh-huh-huh, uh-huh-huh, uh-huh-huh
Uh-huh-huh, uh-huh-huh, uh-huh-huh, uh-huh-huh
Uh-huh-huh, uh-huh-huh, uh

[Interlude]
Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do
Do-do-do-do
Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do
Do-do-do-do
[Verse 3]
To all those parents with sleepless nights
Sleepless nights
Tie your kids home to their beds
Clean their heads

[Verse 4]
To all the kids with heroin eyes
Don't do it, don't do it
Because it's not, not what it seems
No, no it's not, not what it seems

[Chorus]
Salvation, salvation, salvation is free
Salvation, salvation, salvation is free

[Chorus]
Salvation, salvation, salvation is free
Salvation, salvation, salvation is free

[Post-Chorus]
Uh-huh-huh, uh-huh-huh, uh-huh-huh, uh-huh-huh
Uh-huh-huh, uh-huh-huh, uh-huh-huh, uh-huh-huh
Uh-huh-huh, uh-huh-huh, uh-huh-huh, uh-huh-huh
Uh-huh-huh, uh-huh-huh, uh

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
