AD - Take Us To The Water lyrics

It's burnt in my memory, the face of the crowd Lost in the desert, they were cryin' out loud Some voices were cursing, some singing in praise It's one or the other when the curtain is raised Lead us to the water, and wash away the fear Take us to the water that will never disappear (And get us outta here) Out in the streets, there's risin' a cry This isn't livin' but we don't wanna die Politics and heretics, we've heard it all before No phony religion, just get us out thru the door Lead us to the water, and wash away the fear Take us to the water that will never disappear (And get us outta here) I'll give you fountains that never run dry Like eagles you will fly No tear in anyone's eye And the glory won't fade forever, forever on The treasury's empty, the riches withdrawn The people are hungry and the food is all gone The media garbage keeps pumpin' out lies The weight is oppressive as the spectres arise Lead us to the water, and wash away the fear Take us to the water that will never disappear (And get us outta here)
