This song comes on the Deluxe Edition of the album ‘This Is Acting’. This is a song about alcoholism and refinding religion while fighting against this disease. Sia was an alcohol and painkillers addict, so the lyrics are strongly based on her own battle.
[Verse 1]
Say your kin, the pen seeks, ministry
God shaped hole leaves me empty
Bottled friends won't bring relief
Drown your voice with party
[Pre-Chorus]
For one and only
For one so lonely
Faith creeps slowly over me
[Chorus]
How Jesus wept
He wept as he
Took twelve steps
And carried me
Oh, how he wept
For thee
Resurrection on me
[Verse 2]
Blunted thorns are soft on skin
Will the weight of life lift me?
Hear the chatter fooling me
Drown your voice with my TV
[Pre-Chorus]
For one and only
For one so lonely
Faith creeps slowly over me
[Chorus]
How Jesus wept
He wept as he
Took twelve steps
And carried me
Oh, how he wept
For thee
Resurrection on me
[Bridge]
And I felt something light
A fear to abide by
I don't wanna fight
A blinding white light
And I heard a cry
And it was mine
Burning to survive
[Chorus]
How Jesus wept
He wept as he
Took twelve steps
And carried me
Oh, how he wept
For thee
How Jesus wept
He wept as he
Took twelve steps
And carried me, yeah
Oh, how he wept
For thee
Resurrection on me
