Bm1
They found my body near the river
Bm1
Now all the people in our town, they think it was your father
I didn t get your consent, but that s how I make my rent, the voyeur,
It s hard to make a friend
When it s too hard to put down the lense
And so, I float
Bm1
Drifted bout 50 miles past Jamestown
Bm1
I was recovered in the more where I floated onto shore
While the James was good to me,
And the barbed wire, that s another story
It s hard to rest in peace
When you can t get no sympathy
And so...
I can t seem to keep my mind off that night
The way that you left with all your friends beneath the bar lights.
I couldn t help but hate you
So I followed you, I followed you home
Chorus:
And oh, take off your clothes, stand by the window
B1
So I can see the scar that sits below your naval
And oh, with the Rosary, I wish that was me
B1
How I wish I could rest upon your chest forever
I float, x3

Bm1
I wish that I believed in heaven
Bm1
I can t thank Sunday School for that.
Bm1
Send me a seven digit pin code
Bm1
Let me repent, let me believe.
We learn it all once we can comprehend
The folding of our hands, the bending of our knees
And the Hail Mary s all along the bedside
My innocence must have caught his eye
Enough to ruin the last 16 years of my life
It s so hard to repent
When you ve been giving no such reason to believe
Chorus:
I took off my clothes, stood by the window
Bm1
Well don t you see that same scar sits below my naval?
And oh, but it s there for life,
Better yet, the lack thereof
Bm1
How I wish I could come back as a piece of jewelry.
And oh,
I float
I float,
I float.
