Walked in the world, became a catholic Their oil & their guilt Somewhere in high school switched to atheist Your anger & your will Turned 25 freaked out by everything The bodies piled up Fled to your mind when they stopped listening And said, "enough's enough.
What if it's all just jokes? Casper, the holy ghost What if it's all just stones you get to throw?"
And every single time that you opened your mouth Someone else's lies came tumbling out Parading as the truth in a cap and a gown A graduated curse that you cast to the ground
To settle your debts you took a dozen steps Or started on the path Kept falling off when faced with righteousness You couldn't work the math God in the wood, the words, the coffee pot It wasn't adding up At war with yourself, afraid of everyone You said, "enough's enough.
How could you ever know? What if you said you don't? What if you cleared your throat and let it go?"
So every single time that you opened your mouth Something like the truth came struggling out A picture of the past you kept whittling down To a version of yourself you could follow around
So what if the end just ends? It's worthless to worry, then To wrestle yourself to death again and again
Now every single time that you open your mouth Give yourself a breath while you're working it out The answer's in between all the concrete and clouds It's anywhere you want Yeah, it's next to you now
