Standing alone with your red wooden crucifix
Please deliver me from all of the evil that exists in men
You know you never had
And you'll never know you're lost
And you're not alone
Now that the air that you had, it was never rent
And nobody else could have known all the time you spent
Oh you'd rather not explain it
You'd rather not remain in the outer world
Yeah you can stay stupid, stay drunk
But nobody can know
Now that the time it arrives and you can't commit
To things that you never believe could exist in this
You're not alone
Yeah you know you're not alone
But you're damned for love
Because you couldn't quite contain it
And you couldn't put the time on
Your aim
Even now as the awkward moments,
Staged complaints
You never know but the problems start to trade place
And nobody could tell you all the things that break state
You know I'm never gonna keep you under
You probably can't explain it
But you're probably not the same as you ever were
Yeah and it probably was a mistake
It shouldn't take you that long
And now that the body is starting to work
And you're not alone
Yeah you can stay stupid, stay drunk
But nobody can know
The pain
Of walking, gnashing teeth and standing in the rain
Stained
Understand all the choices that you made
In haste
Before you add all the information: place and state
Perspectives change, but the outward stays the same
Perspectives change, but the outward stays the same
Perspectives change, but the outcome stays the same
