In a good world In a bad place In a good world In a bad place There's a gun cocked and pointed at my head I could stop this if I heard what he just said I was trying not to look him in the face In a good world In a bad place In a good world In a bad place In a good world In a bad place Now who's this man? I want to take a peek So I turn around and he says to me, "Man, I did you wrong But don't lose your faith It's a good world But this is a bad place" This is bad This is just so bad You're friends with the devil At least you know what you have And what do I get for being good from the start? Gospel music, gospel music, gospel music And beyond the white light Is whatever you want You don't come alive just to leave alone So long as I'm right I can do what I please But nobody knows what nobody sees In a good world In a bad place In a good world In a bad place Saw his head drop So I turned and I ran And the gun locked, exploded in his hand And I felt like I finally got a break In a good world In a bad place And around the corner There's this old man He pretends he's blind He puts out his hand He pretends he's crazy So you spare your change In a good world In a bad place This is bad This is just so bad You're friends with the devil At least you know what you have And what do I get for being good from the start? Gospel music, gospel music, gospel music And beyond the white light Is whatever you want You don't come alive just to leave alone So long as I'm right I can do what I please But nobody knows what nobody sees And the wind blows up from the atmosphere Blows this cold dust and we're frozen here And we're frozen here And we're frozen here And we're frozen here And beyond the white light Is whatever you want You don't come alive just to leave alone So long as I'm right I can do what I please But nobody knows what nobody sees Beyond the white light Is whatever you want You don't come alive just to leave alone So long as I'm right I can do what I please But nobody knows what nobody sees Gospel music, gospel music, gospel music
