I missed the train
I was left outside for hours in the rain
Then I started swimming
But I never found home again
I started fresh
I found a clean slate, a place to lay my head
Then goes the rising
From the dead
People at the time
What you know, what you don't know
People at the time
Who you are, who you can't be
Underneath the greasy black soil runs water
We all need water
We all need water
People like to tell you
What you want, what you don't want
People like to say
It's not a fight when they're up right
Underneath the greasy black soil runs water
We all need water
We all need water
You never tell
Such a sweet girl survived live in hell
I just kept on smiling
Til I finally felt a thrill
I started fresh
I found a safe place where I could hang my dress
Still goes the rising
There in my head
People at the time
What you know, what you don't know
People at the time
Who you are, who you can't be
Underneath the greasy black soil runs water
We all need water
We all need water
People like to tell you
What you want, what you don't want
People like to say
It's not a fight when they're up right
Underneath the greasy black soil runs water
We all need water
We all need water
We all need, we all need
We all need water
(Yeah)
We all need, we all need
(The greasy black, yeah, the greasy black soil)
(The greasy black, yeah, the greasy black soil)
We all need, we all need
(The greasy black, yeah, the greasy black soil)
(Yeah)
People like to tell you (yeah)
What you know, what you don't know
People like to tell you (yeah)
Who you are, who you can't be
Underneath the greasy black soil runs water (yeah)
We all need water (yeah)
We all need water (yeah)
People like to say
It's not a fight when they're up right
