Adam & Eve

When I was young they would read the story of Adam and Eve
They said this boy and this girl, they were cursed because they ate from the tree
What does this say about me

Cuz I've done so much worse, so many things I can't tell
I'm sure if all this is real well then I'm burning in hell, eternally
It's all too much for me

Cuz I swear I'm a good person
But I sure do sin a lot
I'm a masochist that can't stay sane despite all that's he's got
I smoke and drink and I do the things that God says will bring suffering to me

As I grew up I could see the way the stories deceive
I said I'm not scared of hell because I'm already there, just mentally
What will become of me

Cuz I swear I've good intentions, but I sure do hurt a lot
I'm a boy on fire with no desire to be more than he's not
I smoke and drink and I do the things that God says will bring suffering to me

So where's this gonna end, where am I gonna go
When all of you get tired of this one man show
If nothing else, when nothing's left
I need to for- I need to

Forgive all that I did, and all that I might do
It's time that I accept I'm human too
If nothing else, when nothing's left
I need to forgive myself

Cuz I swear I'm a good person
But I sure do sin a lot
I'm a masochist that can't stay sane despite all that he's got
I crash and sink and I do the things
That I know make a human out of me
