operation
Written by: Matthew Thiessen, (c)2001 Gotee Music (BMI)-Admin. by EMI-CMP

Take me to a hospital
'Cause there's too much blood loss to tell
If I'll make it out alive
My body's got a war inside
The foxy nurse I talked her into getting a new doctor
Someone who cares about me makes sense
Someone with patience for his patients

I need an operation
Oh Lord, please operate
I need an operation
Remove the pride, extract the hate
Bring the color back into my cheeks
Because my flesh is wrong and my spirit's weak

I need a room for this emergency
The ER would suit me perfectly
With tubes and needles stuck into me
I'm a non-poisonous IV
I think my life just passed me by
Twenty years, an ugly sight
But God was there through thin and thick
But there's so much thin it makes me sick

(from the "Creepy EP")
