Bartholomew

Oh my god
Please help me, knee deep in the river trying to get clear
He says wash your hands, get out the stains
But you best believe, boy, there's hell to pay
Yeah you best believe, boy, there's hell to pay, sayin'
Come on

Oh my god
Please help me, waist deep in the river, can you hear my plea?
He says, son, you come like a beggar in the street
You might make it, boy, but by the skin of your teeth
You might make it, boy, but by the skin of your teeth, sayin'

I rebel with the worst of them 
Fell in love with the Harlequin
Saw the darkest parts of men
And I saw myself starin' back again
And I saw myself starin' back again

Oh my god
Please help me, neck deep in the river screaming for relief
He says, it's mine to give, but it's yours to choose
You're gonna sink or swim, you're gonna learn the truth
No matter what you do you're gonna learn the truth sayin'

Fell from a cliff, never broke a bone
My daddy get the kings on the throne 
And I'm all alone and the fire grows
And I'm all alone and the fire grows
