Lyrics

[Chorus]
Mother, take me to the altar
Something's in the water
Carry me, carry me home
Father, save me from the monsters
Hold me like a daughter
Carry me, carry me home
[Verse 1]
What if home ain't a place?
What if love is a cage?
What if we're all alone?
When we turn out the lights
When we're closing our eyes
Where do you wanna go, go?
[Refrain]
Oh, my soul
My soul cries out
Take me home
My soul cries out
[Chorus]
Mother, take me to the altar
Something's in the water
Carry me, carry me home
Father, save me from the monsters
Hold me like a daughter
Carry me, carry me home
[Verse 2]
Power rots you from the inside
Pulls you like a riptide
That's what people say
Towers aren't all made of ivory
Choose your village wisely
Never trust a saint
[Refrain]
Oh, my soul
My soul cries out
Take me home
My soul cries out
[Chorus]
Mother, take me to the altar
Something's in the water
Carry me, carry me home
Father, save me from the monsters
Hold me like a daughter
Carry me, carry me home
