 Got to get through this mess (My Lord)

 All this mess (My Lord)
 I often sit
 There in the sea
 And dream dreams
 And hope hopes
 And wish wishes
 And lately
 As I listen to the wind song
 As it dances a beautiful dance for me
 But these moments
 Never seem to last too long
 Because after the hopes
 The dreams, and the wishes
 You got the singin' of the dancin' wind
 After you and me
 And a stolen moment of happines
 After a glimpse
 Of the timeless, natural universe
 Moving in effortless effervesce
 Starts when rhythm
 Yeah
 Moving in effortless effervesce
 Starts when beauty
 Comes, comes the reality of today
 Grinning it's all-knowing, fiendish grin
 Knowing everything I say
 Everything I feel
 Everything I think
 Every gesture I make today, today
 Pressing his ugly face against mine
 Staring at me with lifeless eyes
 Crumbling away all memories of yesterday's dreams
 Crumbling away
 Crumbling hopes and destroying wishes
 Destroying dreams
 Can't even get close to nobody no more
 No matter how much you try
 You can't get close to nobody no more
 Because today is a killer
 And only you can save us Lord
 Only you can save us Lord
 I never dreamed
 I certainly never hoped
 That one day
 I'd be screamin'
 'Bout something my mother told me I needed
 In the beginnin'
 In the beginnin'
 In the beginnin'
 Yes Lord
 Ooh my Lord (Hallelujah)
 Oh my Lord (Hallelujah)
 Oh my Lord (Hallelujah)
 Oh my Sweet Lord (Hallelujah)
 I really wanna see you (Hallelujah)
 I really wanna be with you (Hallelujah)
 I really wanna see you (Hallelujah)
 But it takes so long my Lord (Hallelujah)
 Oh my Lord(Hallelujah)
 Oh my Lord (Hallelujah)
 My sweet Lord (Hallelujah)
 I really wanna see ya (Hallelujah)
 I've got to see you (Hallelujah)
 I really wanna see ya (Hallelujah)
 But it takes so long, my Lord (Hallelujah)
 Oh my Lord (Hallelujah)
 Oh my Lord (Hallelujah)
 My sweet Lord (Hallelujah)
 Oh my Lord (Hallelujah)
 My Hallelujah (Hallelujah)
 Hallelujah (Hallelujah)
 Hallelujah (Hallelujah)
 Takes so long, my Lord
 Oh Lord, takes so long
 Hope it doesn't take too long this time
 Cause I need to be with you
 I need to be with you, Lord
 Today
 Today
 Today
 Today
 Today, who are you Lord
 You are a killer (Hallelujah)
