Possible "Lying In The Hands of God" Lyrics!!!

[Bartender_Pleez]

Baby i'll be your soldier
Gladly i'll do your bidding
For just a taste of what you're holding
For just a taste you could own me
Save your sermons for someone thats afraid to love
I'll be right here lying in the hands of god

Here it comes dive right into me
Now the floor is the ceiling
If you never flew why would you?
Cut the wings off a butterfly

Save your sermons for someone thats afraid to love
If you knew what I feel then you couldnt be so sure
I'll be right here lying in the hands of god
If you feel angels in your hair
Teardrops of joy run down your face
You will rise

Fill me up now drain me
Skin begins to grow back slowly
Faster until i'm choking
I really should call my mother


Save your sermons for someone thats afraid to love
If you knew what I feel then you couldnt be so sure
I'll be right here lying in the hands of god
If you feel angels in your hair

I am in love with nothing else
Teardrops of joy run off my face
I will rise for someone that's afraid to love
If you knew what I feel then you couldnt be so sure
I'll be right here lying in the hands of god

Now the floor is the ceiling
If you never flew why would you

[HolyCow]

I don't buy it. Is every song going to have "Baby" in it? Is this an Usher album?

EDIT: But those lyrics really aren't that bad.

I don't like this:
Fill me up now drain me
Skin begins to grow back slowly
Faster until i'm choking
I really should call my mother

I guess they could be real. Whatever.

[aoeiifreak]

At first I thought this was a parody of the SMLAM thread...expected some lolz. Unfortunately, found none. Come on.

[WaltzingBack]

it's so hard to judge a song by reading it. can we please wait until we hear the actual song?

[Bartender_Pleez]

I really think this is the real deal!! Good source here!!!

[DerekJTR2]

These are good lyrics. I think the Shake Me are just transcribed poorly.

[Ghosts on TV]

I buy it. If this dude is just making shit up, he should go write his own songs.

Freaking tell us who!!!

I want an effing source. I'm getting on the horn to Charlottesville tonight and working my up from there. (/Adds Brett Radin on Facebook.)

[Ghosts on TV]

I like these lyrics.

as much as i want to be cool... cant reveal!!!

[DerekJTR2]

Anyone else agree that they are probably 85% accurate but some are just off from transcribing just as on 4/15 people's lyrics were way off for the new songs

It's like the prelude to Angel.. "I call you up, you pick up.."

This is going to be one hell of a CD.

[canes101190]

these are better than shake me..I think that's just trying to be a more directly dirty rapunzel..this one seems to have more feeling in it

[HolyCow]

These are good lyrics. Except enough with the babys and the mother line.

"I really should call my mother"

[Jake]

I could not confirm this, and I will not judge the song here.

"Let's go to McDonalds?"

[stone_crazy41]

these seem decent, and since this is the longest song on the album, and the lyrics are relatively short, i think we may have a decent jam on this song, for some reason, from everything i have read on this song, i keep picturing it to be like Proudest Monkey part 2

[WildEyedBeast]

I wonder why he wanted his mommy so bad

Very obviously a 2.6.97 Let You Down "go make a phone call and tell your mother" interpolation. Dave is two steps ahead of all of you.

[sdaltons]

lying in the hands of god was one of my most anticipated songs on the album

if these really are the lyrics, thats no longer the case

[thetammie]

Ugh, I hate when people spoil things for us and don't at least give a source. If these lyrics are true or not, I'm still pumped for the new album. I'm not gonna judge a song until I hear it.

[Panther41]

There's a mix of religious/sexual imagery here, put me in mind of this:

from "A Poem For Easter":

Rising I fall
and what does her body matter
except it is a darkness sabbath
where the church - our bodies

everywhere come together
kindles one small light
from the unyielding flint
then resurrection

the radio messiah
I know
that my redeemer liveth
and he shall stand in the last days

- LITHOG's lyrics are okay.

- Shake Me's lyrics are okay, not great, but okay.

- The chorus of Dive In was disappointing to read a few weeks back in that article (I thought they were kind of cheesy, and I've never said that about a DMB song before).

- Why I Am has decent lyrics, but I'm not a big fan of the song.

- Spaceman has decent lyrics, but it's just kind of there

- Funny the Way It Is has the best lyrics of the bunch imo

What the heck do people want anyway? Expectations are ridiculously high

To me, no, it's not cheesy, as it fits that song perfectly. I'm not judging the song yet until I hear the lyrics within the context of the song. I've yet to hear a DMB song that I dislike, so I'm hoping that will keep up.
