When the Water’s Dark
[Verse]
Lotsa people talk about me
But I don't listen
I bet you thought I'd be easy
To talk to while I'm drifting
And its been bringing me all the way back down
Since they told me that you fell in love
I say, whoa whoa you better slow your roll
I heard the devil lives in that home
Whoa whoa you better slow your roll
I heard the devil won't leave you alone
[Chorus]
You know you need something better
But it won't find you
And you don't look for it ever
Say, say, I be up when the sun ain't rised and the sky's grey
You don't got to have anything but have something to say
I'll be home when the waters dark
And you're in over your head
I'll be gone when they find my heart
I'm in over my head
[Verse 2]
Lotsa people talk about us babe
But we don't hear them
And I know you thought I'd be different
When I get near them
And its been a long, long time since you saw me
But nothings gonna change in me
Say, say
[Chorus]
You know you need something better
But it won't find you
And you don't look for it ever
Say, say, I be up when the sun ain't rised and the sky's grey
You don't got to have anything but have something to say
I'll be home when the waters dark
And you're in over your head
I'll be gone when they find my heart
I'm in over my head
[Verse 3]
Ma I love you, and I'm coming home
I think I got it from you, I'm better off alone
You said it best yourself your little baby's a rolling stone
I'm rolling and I'm stoned
And check, Limosa Nostra til I'm dead
I say a prayer for you when I'm in my bed
I ask god to stop the voices in my head
This town like the devil and my eyes get red
Ion wanna be like that, I can't fight that
Its worse when it fights back
Mama this is like a letter, I'm hoping that you write back
Any thoughts that you might have
[Outro]
I'll be home when the waters dark
And you're in over your head
I'll be gone when they find my heart
I'm in over my head
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
