Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Ah, yeah
[Verse 2]
Walk me down to the wishing well
Help me find that miracle
Splash that holy water on me
Drown my faith in trinity, yeah
Oh, yeah
[Verse 3]
Little by little, gonna get it, I swear
One more piece of the puzzle, I'm there
Yeah
Gotta get lucky, gotta get that done
Little bit of luck never hurt no one
[Verse 4]
Come on, take me down, down, down, down
I'm in a cold sweat
Lord, don't let me drown, drown, drown, drown
In mother earth's soul, yet
[Verse 5]
Oh, not yet
Under darken skies
We'll see the light
Go
[Verse 6]
Broken now I can't help but feel
Someone cracked the seventh seal
Nothing sacred, nothing left unturned
When nothing's simple then nothing's learned
[Verse 7]
So take me down to the virgin spring
Wash away my suffering, oh
Splash that holy water on me
Wash my eyes so I can see
[Verse 8]
Come on, take me down, down, down, down
I'm in a cold sweat
Lord, don't let me drown, drown, drown, drown
In mother earth's soul, not yet
[Verse 9]
Lord, I think I found, found, found, found found
My mother lode, hey
Oh, yeah
[Verse 10]
Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord
Yeah
Down, down, down, down, down, down
Take me down, down, down, down, down, down
Take me
