Lyrics:
Don't need too fake it
Use the power
From this hour
Come Hell or high water
It's Hell or high water
You can see them rise in the shadows
You can tell
But one thing I know for sure
Is I'm still breathing
I'm falling from the sky but it don't mean nothing
Bring on the hell and high water
I went
Come Hell or high water
You just do as you please,
Waste your time when you oughta
Be charming the birds from the trees.
A voice straight from
i'll be your rock to hold onto, till the river goes down.
(chorus)
It's hell and high water, that your goin' thru,
but come hell and high water
the getting's good
Only fools will stay
People fleeing like they know they should
Or they'll be washed away
Hell or high water
Hell or high water
The river's up
Blood and water bound to overflow
Blood and water bound to overflow
Well there's no more high water
But the Old Man's just waiting, I know
He
When the water's too high
When the water's too high
I will carry you
I will carry you
When the water's too high
When the water's too high
I

We've been through hell and high water,
Ready to go through
when the water's too high
when the water's too high
I will carry you
I will carry you
when the streets are too hot
when the streets are too hot
I
I sit here alone on the banks of the river
The lonesome wind blows and the water runs high
I can hear a voice call from out there in the darkness
it all
And know exactly what it's worth
Is it just the way they tell it?
Or has it all been just a bluff?
High time and high water
Rising way above my
Wading in waist-high water
And I love you so violent
More than maybe I can do
Now we're finally aligning
More than maybe I can choose
I wants to go back to Helena, the high waters got me bogged.
I wants to go back to Helena, the high waters got me bogged.
I woke up early this
girl, there's no one quite like you
And I've gone through Hell and high water
Washed away with the tide
I can lose a damn war all by myself
If you were
Just a working horse, born to lose
Not allowed to ever choose
Morning star, frightening war
Smell the sulphur in the air
Come hell or come high water
I sit here alone on the banks of the river
The lonesome wind blows and the water runs high
I can hear a voice call from out there in the darkness
to high
Cause come hell or high water
I'm not giving up on you
If you're drowning I will lift you up
Even if it comes for both of us
I won't turn my back
I would go through hell and high waters
For you any old time
And I would put my life on the line
Just to know that you were mine
If you were mine,
High water
Was all yet said and done?
Please let me adjust
Give me another chance
To try it
To tell the world
The void
The sound I made
The wind
hell or high water
Nothing's gonna hold me down
Come hell, hell or high water
Ain't no body messin' me around
I see their wicked ways
and miles
to the rhythm
'Til the sun is high and the water runs dry
Yes, we can make it far
Don't need inflatables
That's what the waves are for
What are you
I got off my back, found some motivation
I've been living on the other side
Come hell or high water every moment I'm alive
I was living on a fault
Yes I've worked the cotton in the heat of the day
And then paid the landlord nearly all that I made
Well I've seen high water take all that I had
But
Breathe through the top straw,
And I'll hold you between breaths.
Lean into my lungs, and cry when it hurts too much.
Water's high, the water's
