    Something in me, dark and sticky
    All the time it’s getting strong
    No way of dealing with this feeling
    Can’t go on like this too long

    This time you’ve gone too far
    This time you’ve gone too far
    This time you’ve gone too far
    I told you, I told you, I told you, I told you
    This time you’ve gone too far
    This time you’ve gone too far
    This time you’ve gone too far
    I told you, I told you, I told you, I told you

    Don’t talk back
    Just drive the car
    Shut your mouth
    I know what you are
    Don’t say nothing
    Keep your hands on the wheel
    Don’t turn around
    This is for real

    Digging in the dirt
    Stay with me, I need support
    I’m digging in the dirt
    To find the places I got hurt
    Open up the places I got hurt

    The more I look, the more I find
    As I close on in, I get so blind
    I feel it in my head, I feel it in my toes
    I feel it in my sex, that’s the place it goes

    This time you’ve gone too far
    This time you’ve gone too far
    This time you’ve gone too far
    I told you, I told you, I told you, I told you
    This time you’ve gone too far
    This time you’ve gone too far
    This time you’ve gone too far
    I told you, I told you, I told you, I told you

    Don’t talk back
    Just drive the car
    Shut your mouth
    I know what you are
    Don’t say nothing
    Keep your hands on the wheel
    Don’t turn around
    This is for real

    I’m digging in the dirt
    Stay with me I need support
    I’m digging in the dirt
    To find the places I got hurt
    Open up the places I got hurt
    I’m digging in the dirt
    Stay with me I need support
    I’m digging in the dirt
    To find the places I got hurt
    To open up the places I got hurt

    Digging in the dirt
    To find the places we got hurt
    Digging in the dirt
    To find the places we got hurt
    Digging in the dirt
    To find the places we got hurt
    Digging in the dirt
    To find the places we got hurt
    Digging in the dirt
    To find the places we got hurt
    Digging in the dirt
    To find the places we got hurt
    Digging in the dirt
    To find the places we got hurt

    About

    A web programmer by day, I somehow still spend a lot of time thinking about relationships, God, and the significance of grace and love in daily events. I am old school in the sense that I believe in the reality of sin, and in the need of each human heart for deliverance to the Divine. I am one of those who believes that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, and that you can find most answers to life's pressing issues in Him and His Word, the Bible. I ain't perfect, and a lot of the time I ain't good, but by God's grace and kindness, I am forgiven and free.
