lyrics

The root of my problems, 144
squaring up to my 12 offences
daily steps, day by day, step by step

My fear of god, or naming it as such
Carry the cross, bury the stone
hit the rock, come up clean

And I'd do anything for you (and me)
Listen to my painful silence
And I'd do anything for you (and me)
Sing you songs of substance
Love, anonymous

Spending money like I've got no problems
keep this coin in my pocket only when
I want to acknowledge I do

wrong way on a one-way street
trusting no one, meet you half-way
caution: feelings of dread

And I'd do anything for you (and me)
Sit in painful silence
And I'd do anything for you (and me)
Sing you songs of substance
Love, anonymous
