Never been much of a believer
I lean on the skeptical side
Rather not leave it up to higher power
I want to be the one to decide
But where does that leave me as I near the end
Where does that leave me
When my disbelief it won't suspend
I shall not be released
Sometimes I wish that I knew Jesus
I bet he'd be a good pal
He would tell me what is right from wrong
He would boost up my morale
So where does that me
It's them versus us
Never once have I understood all the goddamn fuss
If only things could be elemental
If only I knew with certainty
If only I could claim I knew for sure
But the truth never sets me free
So where does that leave me
What can I know
Maybe in the end you can say I told you so
No I don't see myself as smarter
In fact I see myself as dense
You are sitting at the feet of Jesus
And me I sitting here on the fence
So where does that leave me
As I stand on the precipice
Bet you're glad your life did not turn out like this
