Blood In The Water

Didn't cry on the day she died
She couldn't stand the tears
But I could feel the cold wind blow
Like a ghost inside the mirror

I couldn't pray on the day he died
For a man I never knew
I wash these sins on down the river
For a life I didn't choose

I say a prayer for my mother
I cry a tear for my father
Ain't nothin' gonna save me
There's blood in the water

I pray for forgiveness
Let the Lord be my witness
Ain't nothin' gonna save me
There's blood in the water

Just a child of a ruthless man
Let the truth be told
Everyone's got their cross to bear
You carry that weight alone

So, what would you give, what would you take
On your dying day?
Between the lies and the memories
What shines will fade away, yeah

I say a prayer for my mother
I cry a tear for my father
Ain't nothin' gonna save me
There's blood in the water

I pray for forgiveness
Let the Lord be my witness
Ain't nothin' gonna save me
There's blood in the water

I say a prayer for my mother
I cry a tear for my father
Ain't nothin' gonna save me
There's blood in the water

I pray for forgiveness
Let the Lord be my witness
Ain't nothin' gonna save me
There's blood in the water

(Blood!) There's blood in the water
Ain't nothin' gonna save me
There's blood in the water
I pray for forgiveness
Let the Lord be my witness
Ain't nothin' gonna save me
There's blood in the water (in the water, water)
