My daddy's a preacher And my mom a believer They pray for my soul Every night But now I'm feeling closer To my god than I've ever Since I fell away from my life I'm too young to harbor All the secrets of Heaven And I don't think that I ever will And why wait for a light At the end of the tunnel When I'm surrounded by a light I can feel Now I've made a family With my wife, dog, and water From men I've got nothing To hide I don't go to a book When I'm in need of answers I pray with my eyes open wide 'Cause I've wasted my time And my mind aches from praying To something way off Close our eyes to define And I'm tired of making this tired, Tired body do things it refuses to do And I'm sorry my mind spins around in its cage And I'm sorry it's spinning you too.
