She's wearin' Gucci like a rainbow
An' she wears it oh! so well
Who'd a thought she's in a spiral
As she's on her way to hell
Jesus! she wears it oh! so well
Her innocence was quickly stolen
Like the visions in her head
Holy martyrs pay her homage
As they crawl into her bed
[chorus]
And she prays most night and day
Take me, take me further away
Hold me down
Don't let me drown
Drown in Holy Water
Drown in Holy Water
She's prayin' for a new deliverance
She's counting on her holy grail
The tears she used to barter
Are the one's she has for sale
[chorus]
Drown in Holy Water
As she cries her lament and shame
It's cold comfort in the morning's
When she prays to take away all her pain
[chorus 2x]
Drowning in holy water
Drowning in holy water
Drowning in holy water
Drowning in holy water
