[Intro]
Ooh, ooh, ooh

[Verse 1]
Said God is my hope
And God is my strength
A very present help in trouble
We will not fear
Though the earth may shake
And the mountains reduce to rubble

[Chorus]
I could have told you you was on the wrong track
I could have told you about the knife in your back
I could have told you about the people you see
All of those friends were just your enemies
Honey, I've never seen you look like that before
You're all messed up
Nowhere to go
Nowhere to go, nowhere to go, oh

[Verse 2]
Got the venom of asps
Right under your lips
And a curse on everyone's head
Got the death-rattle twitch
And a rattlesnake bite
Spit a secret right off the tip of your tongue
[Chorus]
I could have told you you was on the wrong track
I could have told you about the knife in your back
I could have told you about the people you see
All of those friends were just your enemies
Honey, I've never seen you look like that before
You're all messed up
Nowhere to go
Nowhere to go

[Verse 3]
Said love is my reason
And love is my strength
A very present help in trouble
So take the true and the real
From the false and the fake
And the mountains reduce to rubble

[Chorus]
I could have told you you was on the wrong track
I could have told you about the knife in your back
I could have told you about the people you see
All of those friends were just your enemies
Honey, I've never seen you look like that before
You're all messed up
All messed up, oh
All messed up, shh!
Nowhere to go
[Outro]
I know where to go
Nowhere to go, nowhere to go, nowhere to go, nowhere to go, nowhere to go
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
