Lyrics

We need the honey like the bees

We need the sweetness of life like bees need honey.

Gimme sound

Provide me with music or meaningful expression.

Need to be touched by you but you're not around

Desire physical closeness, but the person is absent.

Forgiveness

Seeking forgiveness for past actions or mistakes.

Please save some for me

Requesting a share of forgiveness from someone.

Wash me down

Symbolic cleansing or renewal, washing away past issues.

Till I'm new

Wanting to become new or better through forgiveness.

Till I'm pleasing you

Striving to please the person offering forgiveness.

Till I am nothing but true

Desire to be completely genuine and authentic.

Please save a little for me

Asking for a portion of forgiveness to be reserved.

Where is the forgiveness that you promised me

Questioning the fulfillment of promised forgiveness.

Am I too late

Concern about being too late to receive forgiveness.

Gone astray

Feeling lost or having deviated from the right path.

Misplaced the keys to all my churches

Symbolic loss of access to one's spiritual foundation.

Seems I've chased all my angels away

Not having the support of guiding influences.

So I bleed

Experiencing emotional pain or vulnerability.

Gimme speed

Requesting swiftness or urgency in the journey back to the person.

While I'm running back to you

Committing to be genuine and true during the return.

And I'll be nothing but true true

Reiterating the commitment to truth and authenticity.

Me you choose

Expressing hope to be chosen by the person.

See I was hopin' I could walk on your water with you

Desiring a deep connection or intimacy, referencing walking on water.


Forgiveness

Repeating the plea for forgiveness.

Please send some down for me

Asking for forgiveness to be sent down.

Where is the forgiveness that you promised me

Reiterating the question about promised forgiveness.

Am I too late

Revisiting the concern about the timing of seeking forgiveness.

And I've learned to be still when the beast within me moves

Learning to be still in the face of internal struggles.

And I'll be nothing but true

Committing to be nothing but true amidst challenges.
