Sometimes I wish I was dead and gone That I walked this world no more And all my troubles would pa** away As I walked through Heaven's door As long as I can remember now Been out here on my own Oh how I wish I was in your arms To rest my achin' bones [CHORUS:] And put me in the water And put me in my grave But no matter what you want from me I ain't the one to save It's lonely in a border town Where no one knows your name I'd spin this world right into the ground 'Til only life remains When doors are shut for you my dear You simply break them down But I just sat there biding my time Until the keys just came around [CHORUS:] And put me in the water And put me in my grave But no matter what you want from me I ain't the one to save There's holy ghosts and blinded eyes They're fighting for my soul I ain't the man that you thought you knew I ain't that man no more Remember when we owned it all Those days went by so slow But all those times are past and gone And I've got nowhere to go [CHORUS:] And put me in the water And put me in my grave But no matter what you want from me I ain't the one to save And put me in the water And put me in my grave But no matter what you want from me I ain't the one to save But no matter what you want from me I ain't the one to save
