I've been here forever in the cold Waiting in the weather while you Go out searching for our gold But nothing lasts forever I've been told Nothing lasts forever, oh But some of this shit's gettin' pretty old Oh oh oh, it's the Son Of God Come down and tell me, water to my face now Oh oh oh, it's the Son Of God Ridin' down from Oh oh oh, and I'll be good, I'll be good I swear I'll be good But still you don't believe me As if I would be lyin', as if I was suspect As if I was not crying, as if I was not forgiven For my sins, as if the mirror's broken And I would get no chance on that side again Softly and so sweetly, whisper near Softly and so sweetly, because you never know when it's gon' off with you Well, if you're gonna shake me, say my name And if you're gonna blame, well then, lay the blame Lay the blame
