I was working in a shithole one day Some fool came up to me and said "You'd make a star with that band," I said, "it's not why we're doing this, Why can't you fucking get it?" 'Cause all I've got to do is release through These obstacles I've got to beat Release from the man who manipulates me By the breaking of my back, With nothing left worth saving All I gotta do is release through the Obstacles I've yet to beat Take us to a sturdy ship Where we raise our glasses No pints too dodgy here We don't need our problems here Away from all these people, They're posing about, waiting for the next scheme To tip them off and leave them drowning In what they think is real All that's ever been and all that's been said It's not to my regret, you gotta Face the edge of yourself And they say if you got humor through it all You'll find the will to survive what seems like hell Take me to the water, launch me out to bloody sea 'Cause all you gotta do is release Through these obstacles you've got to beat Take us to the water Launch us out to sea And may the drunken mad ones follow me

I went down to the water Like a lamb to the slaughter And didn't know what was waiting for me there Nobody warned me Nobody told me My excuse is I wasn't prepared I drank deep from the river And sealed up my fate I should have seen the trap, baby Before it was too late We go down We go down We go down It's the only way out Who is this fool Who believed all the stories I wish I could say, it's not me You polluted my head With all the things that you said I became what you wanted to see All of these years I've built up this hate I had my chance coming But now it's too late We go down We go down We go down It's the only way out We go down We go down We go down It's the only way out I drank deep from the river And sealed up my fate I had my chance coming But now it's too late We go down We go down We go down It's the only way out We go down We go down We go down It's the only way out Down, is the only way out Down, is the only way out Down, is the only way out ...

Let me drift within your reach Where I'm blameless and pure Hold my hand - move forward Take me to the gates of righteousness Lead me on - by Your word Enter through the gates of righteousness At the threshold of reconciliation To the land where nothing separates From the promise of protection Hold my hand - move forward Take me to the gates of righteousness Lead me on - by Your word Enter through the gates of righteousness Evidence of the ancient declaration Once dead - detached, elevated To live by the faultless law of liberty My darkness drowned in the depths of the sea Open up the gates, I will enter Open up the gates, I will enter through the gates I'll enter through the gates - the gates of the undying I'll leave everything behind and enter - enter Hold my hand - move forward Take me to the gates of righteousness Lead me on - by Your word Enter through the gates of righteousness Liberty - Undying
