Atoms in Evening

On a bench, dark in autumn
You wore the shadow like a dress
Mixing the whiskey with questions
Leaving nothing unconfessed
Your body was drawn in the passing headlights
Shapes unseen in the rearview mirror
You stumbled onto some honesty and then
Pressed on and pulled me near

You said if God exists
Would you take back the moments you broke the rules or got fucked up?
Could you find regret in a night like this one?
Would you wanna be forgiven?

Would you wanna be forgiven?
Would you wanna be-
Would you wanna be-

You said if God exists
Would you take back the moments you broke the rules or got fucked up?
Could you find regret in a night like this one?
Would you wanna be forgiven?

Are we supposed to be separate?
Are we wrong to try and stay?
If God exists, has it all been worth it
Or would you wanna be forgiven?
Would you wanna be-
Would you wanna be-

And now that you're gone and I'm at your headstone
I curse out loud like a bad prayer
We were the only thing you believed in
But I let go
If I'm a Christian by December, would you please forgive me?
I only meant to find God to pass the time
If you can find me while I'm turning over a new leaf
Just know I'm looking for another place to hide

You said if God exists
Would you take back the moments you broke the rules or got fucked up
Could you find regret?
Can you let this go?
Do you have to give in?
