I am the only one that thinks I'm going crazy
And I don't know what to do
I am the only son of a pastor I know
who does the things I do
But if it was you I don't think that it would matter
Oh and if it was true then I just wouldn't matter
I was amazed at the color and shapes that you drew
A paper cut for two
I am the only son of a bastard I know
Who knows the bastard too
Because it was you I called it a different story
But if I was you I'd make this a simpler story
I bet you did what you did when you did it
To do it again by the time you were done with it
I bet you did what you did when you did
Just to tell every friend that you had that the Lord did it
I finally knew that I simply couldn't matter
You finally knew that you simply couldn't matter
I guess that it's true you never knew
The passive power of the truth so cut me loose
If I could write another phrase
We might be better off this way
But there's no use
No there's no use
