Song information
Artist: Patti Smith Album: Easter
Lyrics
I see it all before me: The days of love and torment; The nights of rock-and-roll I see it all before me Sometimes my spirit's empty; Don't have the will to go on I wish someone would send me Energy
Give me something Give me something to give Oh, god, give me something: A reason to live My body is aching Don't want sympathy Come on. come and love me Come on. set me free Set me free
The lord is my shepherd. I shall not want He maketh me to lie down in green pastures He leadeth me beside the still waters He restoreth my soul He leadeth me through the path of righteousness for his name's sake Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death I will fear no evil, for thou art with me
Hey, lord, I'm waitin' for you Oh, god, I'm waitin' for you; Waitin' to open your ninety-eight wounds And be thee, be thee Lead me, oh, lead me
Leave me something Leave me something to live Oh, god, give me something: A reason to live I don't want no handout; No, not sympathy Come on. come and love me Come on. set me free Set me free Come on. set me free Set me free . .
Oh, I'm so young, so goddamn young Oh, I'm so young, so goddamn young Oh, I'm so young, so goddamn Set me free
In the presence of my enemies Thou anointest my head with oil My cup runneth over Surely, goodness and mercy shall follow me All the days of my life And I shall dwell in the house of the lord forever
Ah, damn, goddamn, goddamn, goddamn Here I am
