I keep you in the corner of my mind Where I can find... In the dark in the bleak in the real sad time Yeah I don't need you Lord when I'm doing fine I'll go my own way But I can't let you go even when I try And I try I only call you when I'm losing I only need you when I'm high and dry Like a cigarette or the bottom... Thirsty at the river's end Thirsty at the river's end Forgive me for my sin I like the way it feels to burn in my pain And then I wonder why Your voice seems so far away Like a pawn in the way of a checkmate I keep you at arm's length I only call you when I'm losing I only need you when I'm high and dry Like a cigarette or the bottom... Thirsty at the river's end Thirsty at the river's end And I've tried to control it I'm a slave to the flesh and you know it But you saved the worst parts of me And now I've gotta learn What it means to be free And I try to control it I'm a slave to the flesh and you know it But you saved the worst parts of me And now I've gotta learn What it means to be free Thirsty at the river's end Thirsty at the river's end
