Lyrics Beth Hart – Hiding Under Water

Heaven don’t want me
Heaven don’t fool me
No one will understand
And it’s all right

You say you got a feeling
You figured out the writing on the wall
And angels on the ceiling
Don’t come to you when you call
So you found your own religion
And searched your heart for something more
Still naked in the kitchen
Trying to wipe yourself off of the floor

No I won’t take you for granted
These broken arms can hold you
No I won’t take you for granted

You say it don’t matter
You’re living loud and living long
And hear the phony laughter
Echoing on and on
I’m hiding under water
I pray to God wash me away
Can’t hear the child’s wonder
My innocence got hushed along the way

No I won’t take you for granted
These broken arms can hold you
No I won’t take you for granted

And you don’t say a word
Inside I know
And you don’t say that it hurts
Tonight killed slowly
All the love in the world
Won’t let you let go
Let you let go now

Hold on your soul will rise again
I know that it will
Hold on your soul will rise again
I know that it will
Hold on your soul will rise again
I know that it will

Maybe heaven will want me
Maybe heaven won’t fool me
Maybe someone will give a damn
And I’ll have a life
You say you got a feeling
