My Soul Is Wet

Love is a flower
That fades with the wind
Love is the morning after
Again and again
Death's a sweet corruption
That goes by and by
Death's a sweet little flower
That fades with the wind

Won't you wait for me
'Cause I'll wait for you
Will you wait for me

[Chorus]
I love you but do you love me
I push and kiss you on the floor
I need you but do you need me
I don't need you anymore

The crossroad came
Another life a new decision
The factors involved
Placed us in a new dimension
I helped you
You tried to help me
Looking back long
It's the way it had to be

Won't you wait for me
'Cause I'll wait for you
Will you wait for me

[Chorus]

If I could hear I love you
From you one last time
If I could hear I love you
From you one last time
Like children in the shadows
Trying to find out who they are
Children lost in the shadows
Losing who they are

[Chorus]

Sitting all alone
Waiting for an answer
Was today too strong
Was tomorrow not supposed to be
You played the saddest song
A song of grave forgiveness
Was your life meant to be a
Memory

[Chorus]
The blood on my hands
I couldn't see
Were my words all wrong
Was my sight so blind
Now I bow my head
To a merciful sky
Was it I
Was it on my hands

Picture standing tall
Standing right before me
I smile
As a tear runs down my face
That I feel what I feel
That I see what I see
As the pain
Drives me through the day

[Chorus]

The sun is in my hands
And blinds my path before me
As the tears are holding to my face

[Chorus]

My soul is wet
And I can feel your pain
My soul is wet
And I can see your shame
My soul is wet
You don't know my name
My soul is wet
But I own my shame
My soul is wet
I don't like to change
My soul is wet
But I can rearrange
My soul is wet
Don't ask my name
My soul is wet
To die
To cry
You
Beat me down [x2]

My soul is wet
And I can feel your pain
My soul is wet
And I can see your pain
My soul is wet
You don't know my name
My soul is wet
I own my shame
My soul is wet
I don't like to change
My soul is wet
But I can rearrange
My soul is wet
Don't ask my name

My soul is wet
To die
To cry
You
Beat me till I cry
Till I die
Till I can't stand up
You won't beat me no more
Beat in a corner
Far away
I can't ask for no more

For a land of beauty
Where it's pretty and neat
There's a whole lotta ugly
Up and down the street
An ugly boy
An ugly girl
In an ugly home
There's not much pretty
Where the ugly roams
An ugly house falling down
So pretty you think
With ugly people washing dishes
In the kitchen sink
The scene is sad maybe tearful
But it still needs love
There's still warmth and kindness
Shining down from above

Well, there's a whole lotta people
All around the world
And there's at least one love
For every boy or girl
The majorities ugly though I
Don't know why
Every ugly has some pretty in
It's own little eye
What's ugly to you might be
Pretty to me
So I keep my eyes open to see
What I can see
I see through a bottle
To make it more clear
There's a whole lotta ugly
But the pretty's still there

[Chorus]
Whole lotta ugly
Ugly people need love too
No rest for the ugly
What's an ugly one to do

Ugly to the east
And ugly to the west
And I've ran from ugly
I must confess
I've seen ugly, seen pretty
Seen rich, seen poor
And ugly so tough
It knocks you to the floor
The ugly don't care
They live and they walk
And I'll bet your last dollar
That your one to talk
See the ugly's in charge
And that's no mistake
So sit yourself down
By your ugly date

[Chorus]

What's ugly to you might be
Pretty to me
So I keep my eyes open to see
What I can see
I see through a bottle
To make it more clear
There's a whole lotta ugly
But the pretty's still there
