Water

Clifford T. Ward

I don't mind eternity

Now I've seen you alright

I can face forever

I'm sick of the light

And the lyin' and the cheatin'

I'm a fool and I'm bleedin'

Let me bleed.

I don't mind uncertainty

I've been certain enough

But I don't need adversity

I've had more than enough

You will not laugh and watch me cryin'

You will not spit in my face again

I don't need you when I'm dyin'

You will not cut me down.

There's no answer to my prayer

And still I know you're there

How can I forget?

How can you forget?

I can face eternity

Maybe I'll get some peace

Send me all uncertainty

I'm ending this lease

There's a thinking you call wishful

There's a God you call mine

There's a suffering you don't wish for

And it's all water . . . .
