I'd rather drink the wine.
And I don't need to split the ocean,
to wash away my pain.

I don't really want to be a savior,
I'd prefer to be a ghost.
And I don't need to breathe fire,
to burn away my sin.

I don't need some preacher,
to tell me which path I should take.
I don't want some politician,
telling me how they can change my life.
All I need is my own mind,
and the blood inside my veins.
That reminds me, in this dead end world,
I am after all, just a dipsomaniac.

I don't want to walk on water,
I'd rather drink the wine.
And I don't need to split the ocean,
to wash away my pain.

I don't really want to be a savior,
I'd prefer to be a ghost.
And I don't need to breathe fire,
to burn away my sin.

I don't need some preacher,
to tell me which path I should take.
I don't want some politician,
telling me how they can change my life.
All I need is my own mind,
and the blood inside my veins.
That reminds me, in this dead end world,
I am after all, just a dipsomaniac.
