Lyrics
HOMEMADE HEALING
Hang on sweet Jesus
Hang on to my life
I've had all my thoughts stripped from me
And turned into a child's
My life is filled with strangers
So many demons in my head
It's time I go home now and feed this hunger to put them all to rest
We've both seen strange things outside our open minds
All our wounds have dripped their blood on this countryside
Our homemade healing is enough to ease this mind
Hang on to my life
Hang on to my life
The angels have risen
It seems they've fallen from grace
It's time they dust off all their old habits
I'm starting to lose faith
I don't always hope for salvation
I won't always pray upon my knees
But I'll always let a little divine intervention get the best of me
A strange fascination
Comes over me
Who the hell can I turn to
To make myself believe
Make myself believe
Hang on to my life
Hang on to my life
I'm taken back to my anger
My passion's swinging from a thread
As I lay down my head tonight I wonder
If it was my heart that I bled
Hang on to my life
Hang on to my life
Won't you hang on to my life
