No Faith Required

You can give all you want
Try to jump the queue to your place in life
Your conscience searching for escape
Holy Spirit wide awake

You can preach all you want
A good man will be too much to say
Broken dreams outside the door
Down on your knees, you could buy some more

We get love, we just want the sex
'Cause we get darkness in our heart when the sun goes down
It's easy to satisfy desires
When there's no faith required

You can listen all you want
But the truth is the last thing you ever will hear
'Cause we've got wall to wall secrets here
But at least our carpets are made out of solid gold

We get respect but we just want the money
'Cause we need to keep our balance on that thin wire
Then we can give in to all our desires
'Cause we know there's no faith required

But we're a long way from heaven
We still got a long way to go

You can play all you want
Like a hero in the heat of the night
Playin' like you're crying
To your disciples in the pouring rain

We get the songs, we just want the groove
We need heroes but we mostly get fools
But we know how to light the fire
And there's no faith required

But we're a long way from heaven
We still got a long way to go
Yes, we're a long long way from heaven
We still got a long way to go
