Intro
Verse
To lessen my troubles
I stopped hanging out with vultures
And empty saviours like you
I wish I had a nickel for every miracle
That you easily tricked me into
Chorus
You can lead a horse to water
But fate is another matter
So don't you surrender
Cause sometimes salvation
In the eye of the storm
Sister do you want to try and find me
I've no time for accusations
Or conversations
On all the bad, bad things that you do
Just a note from the jailer
Drugs and the relation
To all the people around you
Chorus
Solo
I've kept secret your superstitions
And all its twisted wisdom
That I fell into
Chorus
Sister do you even want to try and find me?

Oh but faith is another matter
Oh, so don't you surrender, oh no no
