Swept Away |
| Help help help |
| Out out out out out out out |
| Now now now now now |
| The evil fell from your pretty mouth, wrapped in your classic voice |
| Angelic in your syntax, demonic in your motive |
| Your pretty eyes don’t know |
| That the water flowing from this well isn’t fresh |
| Demolish all that sets you up against your rising up |
| Confessing all that’s broken and watch the healing come |
| Spread out your open hands |
| Admit you’ve held them shut |
| Turn all the way around |
| Be swept away by this |
| Time for surrender |
| Spread out your open hands |
| And He will raise you up |
| Confessing all that’s broken |
| And watch the healing come |
| Spread out your open hands |
| Admit you’ve held them shut |
| Be swept away by this |
| Your clothes are smooth and spotless |
| The air is putrid sewage, downwind of your pressed church clothes |
| Your eyes are black and empty |
| Your deeds are just for showing how big and bright your fake smile glows |
| I see you moving and they’re getting scared |
| Their eyes are focusing on something else |
| You’re staring at me and I stare at you |
| I rage against everything that you do |
| See them surrender |
| Spread out your open hands |
| And he will raise you up |
| Confessing all that’s broken |
| Look at the healing come |
| Spread out your open hands |
| Admit you’ve held them shut |
| Be swept away by this |
| I see you moving and they’re getting scared |
| Their eyes are focusing on something else |
| You’re staring at me and I stare at you |
| I rage against everything that you do |
| Get this hell out, get this hell out of my way |
| There’s nothing more that you can say so |
| Get this hell out, get this hell out out out of my way |
| We spread our open hands |
| And he is rising up |
| Repairing all that’s broken |
| Look at the healing come |
| We spread our open hands |
| Forgiveness holds them up |
| We’re swept away by this |
| Out out out out out out |
| Now now now now now now |
