I've been losin' sleep,
I've been keepin' myself awake,
I've been wandering the streets,
For days and days and days,
Oh if I'm road to road,
Bed to bed,
Lover to lover,
And black to red,
But I believe,
I believe
There's no salvation for me now,
No space among the clouds,
And I've seen that I'm heading down,
But that's alright,
That's alright,
That's alright..
That's alright..
And I've been taking chances,
I've been setting myself up for the fall,
I've been keeping secrets,
From my heart and from and from my soul.
Going from road to road,
Bed to bed,
Lover to lover,
But I believe,
I believe
That's alright,
That's alright!
That's alright!
Road to road,
Bed to bed,
And lover to lover,
And black to red,
And road to road,
Bed to bed,
And lover to lover!
Road to road!
Bed to bed!
And lover to lover!
And black to red!
And road to road
bed to bed!
Lover to lover
To lover to lover
No salvation for me now…

Sinner Like Me
Looking out from underneath,
Fractured moonlight on the sea
Reflections still look the same to me,
As before I went under.
And it's peaceful in the deep,
Cathedral where you cannot breathe,
No need to pray, no need to speak
Now I am under.
And it's breaking over me,
A thousand miles onto the sea bed,
Found the place to rest my head.
Never let me go,
never let me go.
And the arms of the ocean are carrying me,
And all this devotion was rushing out of me,
And the crashes are heaven, for a sinner like me,
Though the pressure's hard to take,
It's the only way I can escape,
It seems a heavy choice to make,
And it's over,
And I'm going under,
But I'm not giving up!
I'm just giving in.
Oh, slipping underneath.
Oh, so cold, but so sweet.
In the arms of the ocean, so sweet and so cold,
And all this devotion I never knew at all,
And the crashes are Heaven, for a sinner released,
And the arms of the ocean,
Deliver me.
