jelly beans

Now, I'm not a believer, but I'd pray if you cry your heart out every night
That your tears run dry
We're all the same inside and for that, I apologize
I don't know because it all, it might as well be all my fault
But unlike anything I've ever bought at least I can call this mine
I hope you can make it through, it's all I wanna see you do
In all honesty, I choose not to pick me over you
I'll melt away like candle wax without the glass to save my ass
Before I ever do the math, correct the bad and take you back
I saw this Mormon every week, he would share all his beliefs
Even though I don't believe it was sad to see him leave
I could still sketch out his face and almost anything he'd say
I just can't remember his name
It's the only thing I wish that God would say
So I try to face the dark but every time I fall apart
And God, I'm thankful for these stars, because of them, I can't get far
I treat life like jelly beans, just without the back to see
What you might get when you reach inside
I've come to love the licorice and the other shit I pick
'Cause if I just eat with my fist
It's a taste I can't dismiss
