|
In this cemetery mist |
|
Stands a newborn atheist |
|
Even if you do exist |
|
You're far from almighty |
|
Flesh and blood's a sissy fist |
|
Death's a gold glove pugilist |
|
And everyday it's hit or miss |
|
That's what I believe |
|
I stared at my polished shoes |
|
In front of your wooden pews |
|
Prayed and prayed don't let me lose |
|
What my heart adores |
|
Are miracles old-fashioned news |
|
No healing hands were ever used |
|
Faithfulness was my excuse |
|
Tell me what was yours |
|
I don't know how many rounds |
|
Are left in me 'til I stay down |
|
And there's no telling where I'm bound |
|
But one thing I'm sure of |
|
The king of kings has lost his crown |
|
It's buried here in marble town |
|
In the god forsaken ground |
|
With my only love |
