Things You Need

The sun is peeking in through stained glass
Holy feeling but I know this won't last
Does it bother you to think that
They'll see a marytr and not an outcast
No, I dont need you to typecast
I'm sick and tired of the contrast between
What you preach and what you don't see
So you can walk away and let me be, tell me

I know what I believe
Did you choose to be so naive
So sick of listening

Tell me what I did wrong to deserve this
You speak in tongues and yet you still cant explain it
How do you know what's right
When you can't sleep at night
I'll tell you stories from the afterlife

I think I figured out where we stand
hate to say it but I know this won't last
Repressing years of holy mishaps
Took a hold inside my head and I'm not praying for a relapse
What's the message if we say that
"Everything has meaning" yet we can't afford to give back
Is it empathy that you lack
Don't roll your eyes at me and say that I don't get it

I know there's hope in the unseen
You're blinded by the very thing you thought you would need
The things you need

Tell me what I did wrong to deserve this
You speak in tongues and yet you still cant explain it
How do you know what's right?
When you can't sleep at night
I'll tell you stories from the afterlife
Tell me what I did wrong to deserve this
You preach forgiveness but it's not like you earned it
How do you know what's right
When you can't sleep at night
I'll tell you stories from the afterlife
