There was a time when I Had nothing to explain Oh, this mess I have made But then things got complicated My innocence has all but faded Oh, this mess I have made And I don't Believe in God So I can't Be saved All alone, As I've learned to be In this mess I have made All the untested virtue The things I said I'd never do Least of all to you I know he's kind and true I know that he is good to you He'll never care for you more than I do
There was a time when I
Had nothing to explain
Oh, this mess I have made
But then things got complicated
My innocence has all but faded
And I don't
Believe in God
So I can't
Be saved
All alone,
As I've learned to be
In this mess
I have made
All the untested virtue
The things I said I'd never do
Least of all to you
I know he's kind and true
I know that he is good to you
He'll never care for you more than I do
But I don't (no I don't) Believe in love So I can't Be tamed (be saved) All alone, As I've learned to be In this mess I have made The same mistakes Over and over Again There are rooms in this house That I don't open anymore Dusty books and pictures on the floor That she will never see She'll never see that part of me I want to be for her what I Could never be for you And I don't (no I don't) Believe in God So I can't Be saved All alone, As I've learned to be In this mess I have made
But I don't (no I don't)
Believe in love
Be tamed (be saved)
The same mistakes
Over and over
Again
There are rooms in this house
That I don't open anymore
Dusty books and pictures on the floor
That she will never see
She'll never see that part of me
I want to be for her what I
Could never be for you
And I don't (no I don't)
