Oh Lord it seems I've made a mess out of me You washed me in the river, but I do as I please "And all these things we thought were j**elry they just ended up being chains" All these things I thought would anchor, Lord They surely help me sink Oh Lord it seems I've made a mess out of me Oh Lord it seems you made a fool out of me You washed me in the river and let me think I am clean But these empty things I dove into
Not one as made me full And all these broken folk you gave me to love Well, not one has made me whole Oh Lord it seems you made fool out of me Oh Lord it seems I've made a mess out of me You washed me in the river, but I do as I please But this hole I've thought myself into I ain't trying to climb up Well some think I think to much Maybe I just ain't thought enough Oh Lord it seems I've made a mess out of me
