I lost my virginity when I knew there was nothing to lose
The scales tipped in front of me when I knew there was nothing to choose
Your words have stuck with me like a bass player singing the blues
But that’s enough about me, I’m sure you’d like to tighten the noose
Bring the fire, let the world burn away
Never cared because you won’t have to stay
I’m tired. I’m tired of the flames that only light the words you say
What can the world do with all of your faith
They can’t stand the truth so they turn it to hate
Righteous, not one, but they proclaim your fate
Wash in the blood or be crushed like the snake
Your words are deafening
The curse is what you sing
Our judgment coming soon
A bride without a groom
We all will worship a god
I am that I am or made of our thoughts
The hope of this life seduces us all to hold real truth and resist the fall
A shepherd once whispered to me God isn’t what you think
Water made alive that will quench your thirst, but you will never drink
We fall in love with the pain
With certainty, cursing the flesh but not ourselves for the mirrored lives we lead
I felt dishonest but I knew what it would take
A voice I didn’t have
A heart that was strong and brave
So I took what I could, the praise and the purse
But right behind my eyes was the curse
We fall in love with the pain
A shepherd once whispered to me God isn’t what you think
Water made alive that will quench your thirst, but you will never drink
Everyone fears what they’ve wanted to see
The danger of youth as it tries to break free
Hope sometimes feels like hell
I saw, on the side of the road, a payphone in the street light glow
I wanted to call you and tell you everything
