So Help Me God Songtext
von Front Porch Step

I feel this darkness creep like thunder
It′s rolling straight into my spine
I feel temptation pull me under
My gold has lost all of its shine
I try so hard to stay together
When everything's falling apart
I said that I′d stay gold forever
But it seems that I've misplaced my heart

Save me from myself, hold me down
Lock me away, don't let me out
Tie up my wrists, and have me shot
Please save yourselves, so help me God


I once was pushed when I was younger
I gashed my knee and I loved the pain
(Oh how I loved to feel the pain)
And suddenly I had the hunger
To rise up and make him feel the same
I pushed him back, but I pushed harder
I watched him slam into the ground
(I watched him slam into the ground)
One day I′ll die but I′m no martyr
And I fear that hell is where I'm bound

Save me from myself, hold me down
Lock me away, don′t let me out
Tie up my wrists, and have me shot
Please save yourselves, so help me God
So help me God

This gun shout will drown out
The noise in my head
But these bloodstains won't cover the shame on my bed
And I can′t think about it, 'cause I don′t have the time
'Cause either way, I'll lose my mind

Save me from myself, hold me down
Lock me away, don′t let me out
Tie up my wrists (Tie up my wrists)
And have me shot (And have me shot)
Please save yourselves, so help me God


Save me from myself, hold me down
Lock me away, don′t let me out
Tie up my wrists (Tie up my wrists)
And have me shot (And have me shot)
Please save yourselves, so help me God
