Jesus Christ is doing time for bumping a line on the weekend. Not for organized crime, I guess that’s fine. Save the kids, donation baskets, we’ll pray over their caskets, but if your Jesus is Lord then I’m John the fucking Baptist. And I preach the word everyday, I say put your hands to the sky and dance for fucks sake. Come to me, I’m bloody from my knees I’m begging please tell me you’re right. Take all my troubles away. Come to me, I would but I can’t see much lately, please give me your sight. Take all my troubles away. I'm living off of borrowed time and bottled wine, too worried to care about the people I like. Too hopeful for change to do what’s right. And too scared to give up. Praying that this turns into gold, praying that I can take her home. Praying for fame, for more control. Praying everyday it’s not my turn to go.

What are you doing walking this way? Well I could be wrong but I heard someone else calling your name. And I know they like to complain. She asked me for a cigarette, don’t tell anyone I’m supposed to have quit. And I smiled and you know I won’t say a thing. Maybe when it’s over it’s your call. You stuck around for a few drinks, we played some songs I knew you would sing. If only you knew the things that we could do. You took my hand like a criminal, we danced all night we didn’t leave the floor. But I just want to get out of the middle with you. Maybe when you’re older, you’ll call. Maybe I’m just fucking mean, maybe you just aren’t for me. maybe when it’s over it’s your call
