Deus Ex Machina
I set my house on fire Lord
so you would smell it and look down
I kept my cellar door open wide
so you would come and pull me out
I long to look upon your face
I long to see that starry crown
I want to hear you thunder Lord
I want to tremble at the sound
in the name of God all you demons be gone
I set myself on fire Lord
so you would smell it and look down
I kept my cellar door open wide
so you would come and sort it out
I long to look upon your face
I long to walk on holy ground
I want to hear you thunder Lord
I want to tremble at the sound
in the name of God all you demons be gone
what good is a fishing boat
when the floods come and it don't float?
what good is an empty bottle
if you've got pills to swallow?
what good is a young man's life
if the world keeps spinning when he dies?
in the name of God all you demons be gone
oh Jesus take my soul
I don't wanna wait no more
I got this dryness in my throat
I got this aching in my bones
oh Jesus take my soul
I don't wanna wait no more
I got this dryness in my throat
I got this aching in my bones
oh Jesus take my soul
I don't wanna wait no more
so you would smell it and look down
I kept my cellar door open wide
so you would come and pull me out
I long to look upon your face
I long to see that starry crown
I want to hear you thunder Lord
I want to tremble at the sound
in the name of God all you demons be gone
I set myself on fire Lord
so you would smell it and look down
I kept my cellar door open wide
so you would come and sort it out
I long to look upon your face
I long to walk on holy ground
I want to hear you thunder Lord
I want to tremble at the sound
in the name of God all you demons be gone
what good is a fishing boat
when the floods come and it don't float?
what good is an empty bottle
if you've got pills to swallow?
what good is a young man's life
if the world keeps spinning when he dies?
in the name of God all you demons be gone
oh Jesus take my soul
I don't wanna wait no more
I got this dryness in my throat
I got this aching in my bones
oh Jesus take my soul
I don't wanna wait no more
I got this dryness in my throat
I got this aching in my bones
oh Jesus take my soul
I don't wanna wait no more
