Dead Chic - GOOD GOD Lyrics

Down the hall
Me against myself
Push and pulled
To be something else

Staring in the mirror
Burdened with a smile
Forgetting all the reasons
For the conflict in my eyes

God god
I recite the same old lines
Hold them against me
'Cause they're heavy on my mind

I've been a preacher
I've been preached upon
Found forgiveness
My hand on my heart
'Know I swear good god
I'm hear and I'm singing that same old song

All you ever gave me
Was the confidence to shine
But then I did it to myself again
Took it from your smile
And all I ever needed
Was a hand to hold
A rock in hard water or some medicine for the soul

Good god
I recite the same old lines
Hold them against me
'Cause they're heavy on my mind
Good god I recite the same old lines
Hold them against me
'Cause they're heavy on my mind

The city is on fire
In an arrogant charm
And from the place you're sitting there's no reach from the laws long arm
And in patience it's perfect
But emotionally flawed
As we scream at each other
From the dealers back bed board

Good god
I recite the same old lines
Hold them against me
'Cause they're heavy on my mind
Good god I recite the same old lines
Hold them against me
'Cause they're heavy on my mind

Good god

Good god
I recite the same old lines
Hold them against me
'Cause they're heavy on my mind
Good god I recite the same old lines
Hold them against me
'Cause they're heavy on my mind
