Hands to the Ceiling Lyrics by Select Start

The New Atlantic

2011

Ooh, let me begin
My mind wants to sin
My innocence stolen

Ooh, shake me awake
Love burned at the stake
You caught me wide open now

Maybe I'm cursed with doubt
A feeling I can't shake off
Show me you're hip to it

I'll find my way around
I've made mistakes by telling you the truth
So good at everything I do

If your lungs are breathing
Hands to the ceiling

No, leave me alive
I'll apologize, I'll try not to offend you
Nobody can see
My hands on your knees
You've doubled me over now

If your lungs arе breathing
Hands to the ceiling
If your soul is lеaving
An your body's beating on
