Catholic Knees

Dusting off the all night from my catholic knees
I scraped them up good (scraped them up good)
I scraped them up good
You doctored them clean

Oh yes, we are patient, patient
Salt-lick wounds, merely a bruise
(But none of that'll matter)
None of that'll matter soon
On some ancient date, see how much you can take
(None of that'll matter)
None of that'll matter soon

Everything was moving so fast
(Everything was moving so fast)
Everything was moving so fast
(Everything was moving...)

Before my hands had the chance to grow old I was told
Good enough's as good as it's gonna get
Yeah, good enough's as good as you'll ever get...

So sister says I, I made a conscious decision
Shake the skin I've been stuck in
Stretch my bones
Believing in nothing...
I can't quite seem to catch my breath
(But I cannot forget)

Oh, none of that'll matter soon
(None of that'll matter soon)
None of that'll matter soon
(None of that'll matter soon)
Lord, please keep my feet flat on the ground

Everything was moving so fast
(Everything was moving so fast)
Everything was moving so fast
(Everything was moving...)

So that's where you came in
Yeah, here we are
(Yeah, here I am...)
and that's where you came in
Yeah, here we are
(Yeah, here I am...)
Lord, please keep my feet flat on the ground
Lord, keep my feet flat on the ground

Everything was moving so fast
(Everything was moving so fast)
Everything was moving so fast
(Everything was moving...)
