Rescue - Painting Daisies

Desecrated by the emotional devotional love sea
I fell away from Heaven to see what I could see
There was a man on the corner playing prophet for five bucks
So I knelt down beside him to verify this luck

Sure enough his eyes were concerned with how they should lie
About the cards that lay before him 
About the truth they could hide
Instead he said his powers scared him and that I should go away
"Forget the five dollars,
God knows you've paid.
God knows you've paid."

Crying in the shadows the news man's broke out
The devil's getting fired so won't you please come out
I wanna see the angels all sitting in the tree
Singing, "Glory Halleluja!"
Please won't you rescue me, won't you rescue me?

There are blue eyes and there are blue skies
And they often fit together
Children playing lovers until a change in the weather
Shocked by the drop in the once placental-like air
Pulled from a kiss that's been locked for half a year

Well we were wired, wired, wired from our guts
Hunger not love... love missed us
Love missed us

Crying in the shadows the news man's broke out
Cupid's getting fired so won't you please come out
I wanna see the angels all sitting in the tree
Singing, "Glory Halleluja!"
Please won't you rescue me, won't you rescue me?

It's over now, it's over now
The sunshine man's come in
He's higher than the rest of us
He will wash away the sin

Tonight we will sleep
Tomorrow we will weep
I can hear the reaper knocking on the door...

Hey... hey... hey... hey...

Won't you rescue me?
Won't you rescue me?
