Father tried to save me He said believe in the spirit of God Leave me alone Mother tried to heal me She said just feel me, just feel me Then leave me alone Brother tried to scold me He tried to hold me then mold me Then leave me alone My sister tried to listen But she couldn't understand It's not how I stand, but where I stand And you talk And you talk And you talk And then you're all alone And you get what you wanted all along And then you walk [Chorus] And then you walk oil in the water How come you can't be with me? Oil in the fire I remember how it used to be Swan in the water, You're moving so elegantly And it burns And it burns And it burns And it burns And it burns World war 3 tried to convince me
You were shouting on the radio and tv screen Leave me alone My angels tried to mess me Constantly test me and test me And Now leave me alone The devil tried to bless me, Confess in the d**h Leave me alone My sister tried to listen But she couldn't understand It's not how I stand, but where I stand And you talk And you talk And you talk And then you walk And you get what you wanted all along And then you walk [Chorus] And then you walk oil in the water How come you can't be with me? Oil in the fire I remember how it used to be Swan in the water, You're moving so elegantly And it burns And it burns And it burns And it burns And it burns This world is trying to break me [repeated]
