Holy Water - The Classic Crime

Midnight stop on the street

Red light feet on the ground

And it feels right

Quiet besides the engine I

Escape into paradise

It goes green

And I’m back at top speed

Not another body in sight

I am this perspective

I’m the witness tonight

I am alone

But I’m alive

Every drop of holy water

Comes from the ocean

From the ocean

Every atom in my body

Comes from exploding stars

Billions of years ago

Outside craning your neck

Blue sky stretching your back with your arms wide

Taking deep breaths to purify

Pretty sure that you could be certified

There is no God damned thing in sight

It’s all deemed good in his eyes

You are this perspective

Here to witness the light

You are alone

But you’re alive

Every drop of holy water

Comes from the ocean

From the ocean

Every atom in my body

Comes from exploding stars

Billions of years ago

All that rises must converge

It’s only pain that makes us learn

Exclusive, separate turns infinite to infant

So I dive in and I get burned

The depths are deep, and dark, and hurt

Baptize and resurrect

Each death a new perspective

Every drop of holy water

Comes from the ocean

From the ocean

Every atom in my body

Comes from exploding stars

Billions of years ago

Every drop is holy water

All of us are sons and daughters

Every breath inhaled is heaven sent

Midnight stop on the street

Red light feet on the ground

And it feels right

Quiet besides the engine I

Escape into paradise

It goes green

And I’m back at top speed

Not another body in sight

I am this perspective

I’m the witness tonight
