Everybody's got a ghost
Floatin' through the walls no matter where we go
We're all strong but we're all scared
Haunted houses in our heads
'Cause everybody's got a ghost
Everybody's got a demon
We're all smiling, but inside we're screamin'
We all laugh, but we're all sad
God only answers when he's mad
So run to the river
Where there ain't no stream
Pretend that the water flows
Find a voice
Let it sing
A choir of sinners
With broken wings (broken wings)
Ain't no angels
Just a bunch of thieves
Tryin' to steal some love
So we can sing
Ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh
We don't need no absolution
We'll just keep drinkin' 'til the spirit moves us
Bunch-a fallen saints after the crash
We ain't good but this ain't bad
So run to the river
Where there ain't no stream
Pretend that the water flows
Find a voice
Let it sing
A choir of sinners
With broken wings (broken wings)
Ain't no angels
Just a bunch of thieves
Tryin' to steal some love
So we can sing
Ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh
Oh-oh-oh, my Lord
Can't you hear the song
Of the down and out
Singin' all night long?
Oh-oh-oh, my Lord
Can't you hear the sound
Of the people dancin'
As the rain comes down?
Oh-oh-oh, my Lord
Can't you hear the beat
Of the broken chains
Fallin' at our feet?
Oh-oh-oh, my Lord
Can't you hear the song
Risin', risin', risin'?
Oh-oh-oh, my Lord
Can't you hear the song
Of the down and out
Singin' all night long?
Oh-oh-oh, my Lord
Can't you hear the sound
Of the people dancin'
As the rain comes down?
Oh-oh-oh, my Lord
Can't you hear the beat
Of the broken chains
Fallin' at our feet?
Oh-oh-oh, my Lord
Can't you hear the song
Risin', risin', risin'?
Find a voice
Let it sing
A choir of sinners
With broken wings (broken wings)
Ain't no angels
Just a bunch of thieves (bunch of thieves)
Tryin' to steal some love
So we can sing
Find a voice
Let it sing
A choir of sinners
With broken wings
Ain't no angels
Just a bunch of thieves (bunch of thieves)
Tryin' to steal some love
So we can sing
Ooh-ooh (yeah)
Ooh-ooh (yeah)
Ooh-ooh (hear me sing, yeah)
Ooh-ooh (yeah)
Ooh-ooh (oh, yeah)
Ooh-ooh
