Lyrics Get Off Your Knees - Juliana Hatfield

Get Off Your Knees

You taste little bits that wouldn’t digest
And you shit 'em out of your system
You grab hands, squeeze, then let it go
Drop it and watch it fall away like snow
Yearning for a drug that doesn’t exist
Using your mouth like a fist
That smile can’t even show on your face
You gotta get out of this place
Like the noose snared to your leg don’t fit
Though even if you found the key, you can’t
Get off your knees and repeat after me
The devil rocks my soul
Accept the fact that he didn’t die
And you’ll begin to go
There’s a lump in my throat that won’t go away
I’m gonna rip it out
I’m gonna kill desire and knock it down
You’ll be under my foot, down on the ground
You’re trying to get the picture when there’s nothing really to get
You’re running around in the desert, trying to get wet
You’re wanting to hold on tight when there’s nothing really to hold
Stop that train of thought that drives you into the cold
Get off your knees and repeat after me
The devil rocks my soul
Accept the fact that he didn’t die
And you’ll begin to go
Get off your knees and repeat after me
The devil rocks my soul
Accept the fact that he didn’t die
And you’ll begin to go
