Heaven knows
I'm cycling
From greed to lust
To shame to sin
Oh
I was baptized
Did it dry off?
Could they hold me under long enough?
Oh

And I just wish I knew how to shake it
Come up clean and stay on the pavement
I promise you tonight I’ll try and get it right
But I’ll still be a human tomorrow

I’ve been fighting
Tooth and nail
But maybe I was made to fail
Oh
I’ll run to you
When I fall
Is that what you wanted all along?
Oh

And I just wish I knew how to shake it
Come up clean and stay on the pavement
I promise you tonight I’ll try and get it right
But I’ll still be a human tomorrow

Oh
Did I let you down again?
I don’t know
Cause we’re all just wrestling
With a ghost
And nobody ever wins
Oh no no
Oh no no

I just wish I knew how to shake it
Come up clean and stay on the pavement
I’ll promise you tonight I’ll try and get it right
But I’ll still be a human tomorrow
