Run into the chapel, yeah

Light up every candle

I fall to my knees, I say, God please

What can I do?

Ninety seconds later

Both hands round my neck, I

I plead, oh man, take your hands off

What can I do?

I got an 800 number I like to call

I've got an 800 number I like to call

They ask me if you caused the fall

Instead, I tell them my dream

You're lying, you're crying

I'm holding your hand

But I wanna let go, oh, yeah

But you're, you're dying

I'm screaming

My fingers are slipping

Oh, I wanna let go

For my body and soul

For my body and soul

For my body and soul

90 days later, run into the castle

Oh, I grab what I can, I take the can, I

Take the kids' shoes

I'm living the blues

I changed my locks, I changed my number

I'm living in a slumber

I started smoking again

I had another dream

We're kissing, we're touching

I'm touching you

You're touching me

Oh, I'm bleeding

Oh, and I'm bruising

My fingers are slipping

Oh, I wanna let go, yeah

For my body and soul

For my body and soul

Don't fuck with my kids, you can take my money

You can take my house, you can take my honey

Your angry inch packs a mighty punch, oh

I got my body and soul

(Soul, my body and soul, my body and soul

My body and soul, my body and soul)

Don't fuck with my kids, you can take my money

You can take my house, you can take my honey

Your angry inch packs a mighty punch, oh

I got my body and soul

(Soul, my body and soul, my body and soul

My body and soul, my body and soul)

Don't fuck with my kids, you can take my money

You can take my house, you can take my honey

Your angry inch packs a mighty punch, oh

I got my body and soul

(Soul, my body and soul, my body and soul

My body and soul, my body and soul)

I got my body and soul

(My body and soul, my body and soul

My body and soul, my body and soul)

I got my body and soul

(My body and soul, my body and soul

My body and soul, my body and soul)

I got my body and soul
