Try my best to shake this down
Say a prayer on hallowed ground
And hoping to find a remedy
Letters from an ancient chart
Make a sign then cross my heart
And maybe someday I'll be free
Juju at the stroke of twelve
Can't control it by myself
Can't face tonight all alone
Dying in a bed of steam
Guaranteed to make you dream
Impossible dreams, I should've known
Well, I've tried to hide this thing inside and act okay
I suppose I was going to lose my mind anyway
Possessed by you
Fired by you
Owned by you
How do you explain this hurt
Is it just the devil's work
Or is it a fault, a little fault in me
Try my best to shake this down
Say a prayer on hallowed ground
And maybe someday I'll be free
I'll find a place to try and face this sad withdrawal
Well, love is just the child of death after all
Possessed by you
Fired by you
Owned by you
Owned by you
Owned by you
Possessed by you
Fired by you
Well, maybe someday
I will be whole again
Possessed
Possessed
Possessed
Possessed
Possessed
Possessed
Possessed
I try the best to shake this down
Say a prayer on hallowed ground
Maybe someday I'll be free
Maybe someday I'll be free
Maybe someday I'll be free
Maybe someday I'll be free
Swing down chariot, stop and let me ride
Swing down chariot, stop and let me ride
Ooh, rock me, Lord, rock me Lord, calm and easy
I've got a home on the other side, I said
Swing down sweet chariot, stop and let me ride
Swing down chariot, stop and let me ride
Ooh, rock me, Lord, rock me, Lord, calm and easy
I've got a home on the other side, I said
I looked up over the street, what did I see
Four white chariots slow running up to me, I said
Four white horses running side by side
Swing down sweet chariot, stop and let this child ride, I said
Swing down sweet chariot, stop and let me ride
Swing down chariot, stop and let me ride
Ooh, rock me, Lord, rock me, Lord, calm and easy
I've got a home on the other side, I said
Wake me, shake me, don't let me sleep to late
Gotta get it going on a good time, swing on the Golden Gate, I said
Gotta get it going on a good time, swing on the Golden Gate
Because I'm bound, higher ground
Yes, 'cause I'm bound, higher ground
Well, 'cause I'm bound, higher ground
Higher ground
Higher ground
Higher ground
'Cause I'm bound, higher ground
