You were the very truth I once believed
You were the keeper of my soul
But will it ever change
I've heard those lies before
Your motivations wage invisible war
I know a place
Where the sun never dies
That's where His name comes in
To expose your sin
Keep your Dirty Water
I ain't gonna drink
Your words corrode me and teach me how to think
Your Dirty Water's poison to my soul
Your words of wisdom won't guide me anymore
Your works possess the ears of newborn babes
But you're not their master and they're not your slaves
But will it ever change
I've heard those lies before
And I know it's you whose knocking at my door
I know a place
Where the sun never dies
That's where His name comes in
To expose your sin
So keep your Dirty Water
I ain't gonna drink
Your words corrode me and teach me how to think
Your Dirty Water's poison to my soul
Your words of wisdom won't guide me anymore
I won't fall down to loneliness
I won't be bound for your emptiness
I know a place
Where the sun never dies
That's where His name comes in
To expose your sin
So keep your Dirty Water
I ain't gonna drink
Your words corrode me and teach me how to think
Your Dirty Water's poison to my soul
Your words of wisdom won't guide me anymore
Keep you Dirty Water - I don't want a drink
Cause your words corrode me and teach me how to think
And your Dirty Water - no, no
Won't let your Dirty Water drown me anymore
