It's like being in love You rob your own mind and defile your bed You ignore the fate of the players who both end up dead And you pretend for us and you pretend for them This fairytale will make them jealous of you But it's not the kind, the kind that you talked about And it's just the kind that rips the clothing off your mind She is feeding you and you lie with her And for the first time your right arm becomes useful As you sin with it, you wanna cut it off But instead you thank God for all of the wrong you do But it's not the kind, the kind that you talked about And it's just the kind that rips the clothing off your mind And she is feeding you and you lie with her And for the first time your right arm becomes useful As you sin with it, you wanna cut it off But instead you thank God for all of the wrong you do (Yeah well then you thought wrong) ('Cause you can't serve God and money) (You can serve one or the other) You cut the cord today with God's hand to hold yours steady He waits for you to apply the pressure The warmth of his breath wrapped in his words As he repeats his truth, after truth, after truth, after truth After truth, after truth, after truth, after truth, after- But it's just the kind, the kind you talked about And it's just the kind that clothes your mind with Christ He is feeding you and you know the truth And I pray this is the last song I will sing to you And it's just the kind, the kind you talked about And it's just the kind that clothes your mind with Christ He is feeding you and you know the truth And I pray this is the last song I will sing to you I'm sorry Father, I'm sorry sister I'm sorry brother, I'm sorry everybody I'm sorry Father, I'm sorry sister I'm sorry brother, I'm sorry everybody

Should we even wonder why our hearts are torn? Why our image is based on this broken city? Should we ask ourselves why our lungs breathe in sickness? Innocence is seen as weakness, laughter at as naïve. And it's these things that hold you down When they're supposed to keep you safe and sound. And it's these things you claim to believe Don't let them be the ones you forever try to please. It's a scene that leaves you cold But why choose anything else and lose your place in line? May I ask one thing, how do you think this will work out? You are no more well-liked than those who have been betrayed And it's these things that hold you down When they're supposed to keep you safe and sound And it's these things you claim to believe Don't let them be the ones you forever try to please Look at you now Look at you now And it's these things that hold you down When they're supposed to keep you safe and sound. And it's these things you claim to believe Don't let them be the ones you forever try to please.
