Well  I don't need more guilt  here in my life,
How  the hell is that supposed to help  me find the light?
And  I don't need you preaching at  me day and night
 About the  way I look, the way  I walk,
 The way  I dress and the way  I talk,
There's  something that you think  you see like you've  ever looked at me
You  say you've got it figured  out,
And  you seem so damn proud  about it,
I  never really trusted  folks who have  to talk so loud
 That ain't to say you never looked me in the eye,
 But lookin' isn't seein' when you just can't spare the time,
 Besides you're selling things I just don't feel like buying,
 Like guilt and pain,
 Fear and shame,
 Who to thank, and who to blame,
 A set of rules that's bound to keep the living out of life
 Who to love and who to hate,
 What's too soon and what's too late,
 There's some test you have to pass before you feel the love of god
 Jam:
 Well I don't need some fear of afterlife,
 How the hell is that supposed to help me find the light?
 And I don't need you preaching at me day and night
 About the things I do and the things I don't,
 What I will and what I won't,
 There's fire in your eyes sir, and it chills me to the bone
 You say you've got it figured out,
 And you seem so damn proud about it,
 I never really trusted folks who have to talk so loud
So  thanks alot man, but  I'll be moving on
Yours  is a hateful sermon, and it takes  too goddamned long, see
Life  is short and I'm gonna find  mine searching for the light
Yes  I'm searching for the light  (repeat as desired)
 (Searching for the light...)
