Song lyrics
When deadbolts awake you from deja vu dreams,
At 4 in the morning you know where I'll be
Out running red lights asleep at the wheel
The sirens feed my nightmares.
I just close my eyes and I’m already there;
Its already too late.
I know its nothing but lies,
But they sound so sincere;
I find them too hard to hate.

And she calls from the doorway "stolen water is sweet,
So lets drink it in the darkness if you know what I mean"
And she calls from the doorway "stolen water is sweet,
So lets drink it in the darkness if you know what I mean"

And I’m almost sure
That I've been here before,
That this is not the first time I’ve stood in front of this door,
With an overwhelming feeling that I shouldn’t go in,
But it seems this is a battle that I never could win.

Right now!
My true love!
You call from the hilltop.
You call through the streets,
"Darling don’t you know,
The water is poison."
And I say!
"Come on and give me my poison."

What have I done…?
Is it too late to save me from this place?
From the depths of the grave?
We all are those ..
Who thought we were brave…
What have I done…?

This song rocks. It is influenced by Proverbs 9 in the Bible. They practically quote it.

i think it is supposed to have the piano at the end because my version does too. It is a wicked awesome song tho. I don't know much about the bible, but apparently it quotes it??

im not an expert on the bible but i have read a fair bit of it... i didnt see any direct quotes in the lyrics... i may have just not know them tho... i have however heard a fair bit about thrice having christian influence in their lyrics... also a lot of their lyrics are based on CS Luis books which had stong christian influence so that may be some of it... im glad that piano solo is mean to be there i like it

This song as previously suggested is influenced from passages from the Bible. In Proverbs 9:17-18 it says, "Stolen water is sweet; And bread eaten in secret is pleasant." The basic theme of the song can be found in Proverbs 7. I am a Christian and so is Dustin. Jesus Christ died on the Cross to forgive the sins of everyone! It is a free gift from God... John 3:16 "for God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that whosoever believes in Him shall not perish but have everlasting life." If you are not sure where you are going when you die, or have any questions about Christ send me an email at derricklappinga@hotmail.com
God Bless you guys
