Lyrics

[Verse 1]

It's taken everything

Everything I've got and it's hung me on a line

Water rising up over me

And I think I'm gonna to die, think I'm gonna die

[Verse 2]

I told a lie, that's what I said

I told them one you know I'll always keep

Whose god is mine? Whose god is mine?

Whose god is mine? Whose god is

The one with the witness?

[Verse 3]

Shine your lonely light on me

I'll be there to hold the mirror

I could take you down with me

Show you lonely, lonely, lonely

[Verse 4]

Death wastes no time it seems

And it's hung me on a line, hung me on a line

Heartbreak falling all over me

And I think I'm gonna to die, think I'm gonna die

[Verse 5]

I told a lie, that's what I said

I told them one you know I'll always keep

Whose god is mine? Whose god is mine?

Whose god is mine? Whose god is

The one with the witness?

[Verse 6]

Shine your lonely light on me

I'll be there to hold the mirror

I could take you down with me

Show you lonely, lonely, lonely

[Verse 7]

I told a lie, that's what I said

I told them one you know I'll always keep

Whose god is mine? Whose god is mine?

Whose god is mine? Whose god is

The one with the witness?

[Verse 8]

Shine your lonely light on me

I'll be there to hold the mirror

I could take you down with me

Show you lonely, lonely, lonely

[Verse 9]

Shine your lonely light on me

I'll be there to hold the mirror

I could take you down with me

Show you lonely, lonely, lonely

[Verse 10]

Lonely, lonely, lonely
