"Depravity" lyrics - RICK SPRINGFIELD

Running away from the sulfur on the streets
This city burns, it never sleeps
The quicksand pulls, I can't break free
Let go of me, depravity

And I cannot deny there's blisters on my feet
From the fire, can you make me complete
Turn this black sheep to family
It's hard to believe I've slid into this hole
This place has leaked into my soul
Oh let me be, depravity
Falling forward, I'll be free

Save me from the dark man who came to town
Save me I don't want to be lost but found
Save me so I won't burn this whole thing down
Save me from myself and my d-e-p-r-a-v-i-t-Y

Gonna put up a fight just to keep the peace
In the blink of an eye the strong are weak
All upside down this gravity
Taken a side with a heart as black as coal
Making the big green, let it roll
This pretty pill, depravity
Fallin forward, I'll be free

Save me from the dark one who comes around
Save me I don't want to be in this crowd
Save me, so I won't tear this to the ground
Save me, from myself and my d-e-p-r-a-v-i-t-Y

Save me from the dark men who came to town
Save me, I don't want to be lost, but found
Save me, so I won't burn this whole thing down
Save me, I don't want to be pushed around
Save me, so I won't tear this to the ground
Save me from myself and my d-e-p-r
From myself and my d-e-p-r-a
From myself and my d-e-p-r-a-v
From myself and my d-e-p-r-a-v-i-t

D-e-p-r-a-v-i-t, d-e-p-r-a-v-i-t, d-e-p-r-a-v-i-t
