[Verse]
I’m spent, I ain’t got much more to give
Lost time running ragged from the dangers of my skin
But if I go to church and bow my head then at least I’ll be spared
Father will you hold out hope for me yet?

[Verse]
I’m numb, I’m cut off from the neck
But I’ll creep down the aisle looking for the exit
Will you still keep the light on, even when I confess?
Will you wait for me even if I take years?

[Pre-Chorus]
Holy is the one who saves, so they say

[Chorus]
I keep praying for an answer but I’ll never find it on high
I’ll make my way through troubled water
‘Cause even god gets a little busy sometimes

[Verse]
I went to the bottom of hell
In search of a lover to lay myself bare
But I roared until my tears ran dry and my body was overwhelmed
Silence reaps the benefits
[Chorus]
I keep praying for an answer but I’ll never find it on high
I’ll make my way through troubled water
‘Cause even god gets a little busy sometimes
He get a little busy sometimes
He get a little busy sometimes
He get a little busy sometimes

[Instrumental bridge]

[Pre-Chorus]
Holy is the one who prays, but I’m no saint

[Chorus]
I keep praying for an answer but I’ll never find it on high
I’ll make my way through troubled water
‘Cause even god gets a little busy sometimes
He get a little busy sometimes
