Ode to joy
My lover boy's speaking in tongues
And the sky's bleeding gray
Now I pull my bag o' prayers out
I hope to find one to save the day
And he judged my love my lust
My taste with the straightest face
As I crumple up inside
A papier-mache a shell with no name
Sweet chariot
Come come take me away from my fear
Sweet chariot
Come I have to get out of here
And he took me further than I wanted to go
Underneath his shoe
And it leaves me hungry for a touch I can't feel
A touch he won't do
And I thought the circle it had an end
I'm old enough to know
My denial is how we began and how we will end
And now that I know
Sweet chariot
Come come take me away from my fear
Sweet chariot
Come I have to get out of here
Oh the blood that's in my veins
So cold and frozen from the stings
Oh he comes and goes in waves
Am I really here
Sweet chariot
Come come take me away from my fear
Sweet chariot
Can we leave him a trail of my tears
Sweet chariot
It's been it's been the longest of years
Sweet chariot
Come I have to get out of here
