As I walk through the valley
Of the shadow of L.A.
The footsteps that were next to me
Have gone their separate ways
I've seen enough now to know that beautiful things
Don't always stay that way
I've done enough now to know this beautiful place
Isn't everything they say
I heard that evil comes disguised
Like the city of angels
I'm walking towards the light
Baptized in the river
I've seen a vision of my life and I wanna be delivered
In the city was a sinner
I've done a lot of things wrong but I swear I'm a believer
Like the prodigal son, I was out on my own
Now I'm trying to find my way back home
Baptized in the river
I'm delivered, I'm delivered
You're from a small town
You're gonna grow up fast underneath these lights
Down in Hollywood on the boulevard
The dead come back to life
To the praying Mother and the worried Father
Let your children go
If they come back they'll come home stronger
And if they don't you'll know
They say evil that comes disguised
Like the city of angels

I'm walking towards the light
Baptized in the river
I've seen a vision of my life and I wanna be delivered
In the city was a sinner
I've done a lot of things wrong but I swear I'm a believer
Like the prodigal son, I was out on my own
Now I'm trying to find my way back home
Baptized in the river
I'm delivered, I'm delivered
Baptized in the river
(On my own!)
Baptized in the river
(On my own!)
I wanna be delivered
(On my own!)
(On my own!)
Baptized in the river
(On my own!)
I wanna be delivered
Baptized in the river
(On my own!)
I wanna be delivered
Baptized in the river
(On my own!)
I wanna be delivered
I confess I'm a sinner
I've seen a vision of my life
And I wanna be delivered!

Is this song about River Phoenix?

Who gives a crap, they're 2 of the best bands that have made music. It's wrong to say A7X are christcore because thats lame and not all their songs are like that, at all! Same with good charlotte, just becaues they have some belief doesnt mean thats all they are. Listen to their songs, and realise the whole story! Dont go saying you know a band if you've only listen to or read the lyrics of one song. Thats bias, and idiotic. Who really cares, they make good music and they change how you feel - no need to make some huge fuss!

this song rocks! it has a good message, good charlotte and avenged sevenfold are not completely christian but avenged sevenfold has some religious content in some of their songs.
greendaysupernatural
there is no way A7x are fully christian , they may sing about it but no way they are not like , you think if you were that you sing about having sex with you dead love one after you stab her ???

Wow than many fans don't seem to be fans, because A7x has stated they do have songs that have to do with christianity, but they said just cause they are religious doesn't mean they are singing about it. so basically they can be religious but don't consider them a christian band, so basically people that think they are religious are wrong, and those that think the opposite is wrong aswell. So basically they are both. sheesh.

omg i love this song! =D
Crazy Chicken
who cares if they're religious or not, this song is freaking awesome!
emma: a7x
and just cos syn n matt are in didn't make it more religous. that is alll
emma: a7x
yerr but in general. that doesn't make them a christcore band. they dont base all their songs around religion. dear god is a good song though
