Place Your Hand Lyrics by Melissa Etheridge

Place Your Hand Lyrics

    I've an image in my pocket
    Of some dark demon
    That temptation brought to life
    And it chokes all of my breath out
    I'm scratching and screaming'
    'Til morning comes to night

    Place your hand
    My body will decide
    Place your hand
    My anger will subside

    There are fragments of possessions
    Shards of past relations
    Splintering my skin
    A fear so black and hollow
    It can suffocate creation
    And refuse to let you in

    Place your hand
    My body will decide
    Place your hand
    My anger will subside

    And they speak to me like prophets in my dreams
    Speak to me like prophets in my dreams
    Shouting like prophets in my dreams

    Sometimes I think it's easy
    Too easy for the living
    To receive the promised land
    Can flesh provide the answer
    The reaction for sensation
    Justify your hand

    Place your hand
    My body will decide
    Place your hand
    My anger will subside
