The Pretty Reckless - Goin' Down Lyrics

Hey there Father, I don't wanna bother you
But I've got a sin to confess
I'm just sixteen, if you know what I mean
Do you mind if I take off my dress?

Don't know where to start, let me get to the good parts
Might wanna cross up your legs
I've got envy, I've got greed, anything that you need
And I'm not above havin' to beg

There was this boy who tore my heart in two
I had to lay him eight feet underground

All I need is someone to save me
'Cause I am goin' down
And what I need is someone to save me
'Cause I am goin' down, all the way down

Well, hey there, Father
There is just one other thing, I have a simple request
I hear you know God, could you give him
A nod in my direction, I would be in your debt

Perhaps there is somethin' that we could work out
I noticed your breathin' is startin' to change
We could go in the back behind all these stacks of bibles
And get out of this cage

There was this boy who tore my heart in two
I had to lay him eight feet underground

All I need is someone to save me
'Cause I am goin' down
And what I need is someone to save me
'Cause God, I'm goin' down, all the way down

I didn't wanna do it, Father
But I caught him with another woman
In the bed I made him, so I put him in a grave
And now there's no one left around to get me off
When I want it to drag

The next day on the television they identified him
By the circumcision that I made and now I'm on the run
But wait, why did I have to go and kill him
When he was the best I'd ever had?

All I need is someone to save me
'Cause I am goin' down
And what I need is somethin' to save me
'Cause God, I'm goin' down, all the way down
I'm goin' down, all the way down
