Seren - Take Me to the River Lyrics

Take me to the river
Hold my head under
May I learn to breathe in the water
If I die won't you leave my body
So everyone may see
That I was never enough

And if I don't comply
If I try to run
Follow me, hunt me down
Fire your holy gun

And you say
I don't want to hurt you
I just want to protect you
I don't want to hurt you
But you need to be saved
From yourself

Tie my hands so I can do no wrong
Bind my wandering feet
Drag me through the city
Display my iniquities
Beat me down until I am no more

And if I don't comply
If I try to run
Follow me, hunt me down
Fire your holy gun

And you say
I don't want to hurt you
I just want to protect you
I don't want to hurt you
But you need to be saved
From yourself
