Holy Water Songtext
von World’s First Cinema

Oh, weigh me down
To the riverbed
Down here, my fear
Sinks like a stone

Oh, wash me clean
Of the mess I am
This heart, these bones
Were born to broke

I′ll be tending roses
In the garden by the road
Everybody passes but I want to know

Was it always set in stone
All the tears I cried alone
If I only held them close
Could I have spun them into gold

But if I'm blinded by the sunlight
The shadows come to call
Too much holy water
Would drown us all


Oh, lay me down
Like I never left
I′m bruised, I'm broke
But not what I seem

Oh, turns out fear
Is just a crutch I had
It's strange, how much you learn
Learn when you leave

I′ll be tending roses
In the garden by the road
Everybody passes but I′ve gotta know

Was it always set in stone
All the tears I cried alone
If I only held them close
Could I have spun them into gold

But if I'm blinded by the sunlight
The shadows come to call
Too much holy water
Would drown us all

I′ll be tending roses
In the garden by the road
Everybody passes and now I know


It was always set in stone
All the tears I cried alone
If I only held them close
I'd have seen that they were gold

But if I′m blinded by the sunlight
The shadows come to call
Too much holy water
Would drown us all

Too much holy water
Would drown us all
