Lyrics

Please Lord in thy hands my soul to keep
I’ve played dangerous games with your
enemy
It’s seeped to the surface the stench of
the grave
I cannot deny what’s covered my pain
Once feeling high
Now feeling low
My skin is crawling, how far can I fall?
I’ve learned my lesson
Now I face my fate
Heaven help me now keep the serpent
at bay
Hey man, oh man I’m alive
How did, how did I get so high?
And survive through the night?
Beset by the threats the way they hold
me
Now close to flame I fall to my knees
Where are the plaudits? Where is my
crown?
Where are my friends when I fall to the
ground?
Once feeling high
Now feeling low
My skin is crawling, how far can I fall?
I’ve learned my lesson Lord
Now I face my fate
Heaven help me now, keep the serpent
at bay
Hey man, oh man I’m alive
How did, how did I get so high?
And survive through the night?
Words are empty that are said to fit in
They linger lonely, hollow and thin
The wages of violence need out of control
Truth forsaken as the heart dies fallow
Please Lord in thy hands my soul to keep
I’ve played dangerous games with your
enemy
Hey man, oh man I’m alive
How did, how did I get so high?
