holy water

somewhere there's a stolen halo

i use to watch her wear it well

everything would shine wherever she would go

but looking at her now you'd never tell

someone ran away with her innocence

a memory she can't get out of her head

i can only imagine what she's feeling

when she's praying

kneeling at the edge of her bed

and she says take me away

then take me farther

surround me now

and hold

hold

hold me like holy water

holy water

she wants someone to call her angel

someone to put the light back in her eyes

she's looking through the faces

and unfamiliar places

she needs someone to hear her when she cries

and she says take me away

then take me farther

surround me now

and hold

hold

hold me like holy water

holy water

she just needs a little help

to wash away the pain she's felt

she wants to feel the healing hands

of someone who understands

and she says take me away

then take me farther

surround me now

and hold

hold

hold me

and she says take me away

then take me farther

surround me now

and hold

hold

hold me like holy water

holy water
