This Old Ark
Well I don't know where the time goes
But I remember what you said
And every single feeling's dead
Every word sounds more absurd
Faith and comedy could heal the hurt
s dug out through some Christian dirt
Well am I everything you wanted?
Am I everything you never had?
I thought it was strange
How they kept me in the dark
Shouting "One day young boy you'll be a man
and you'll be guiding this old ark.
You've got a lonely heart."
Oh but a lonely heart
Facing me
A false belief
And I never thought the books I read
Would make me who I want to be
Well am I everything you wanted?
Am I everything you never had?
I thought it was strange
How they kept me in the dark
Shouting "One day young boy you'll be a man
and you'll be guiding this old ark.
You've got a lonely heart."
Oh but a lonely heart
I never knew how much I'd miss it till it's gone
I still listen to your favorite songs
Wishing you were in my arms
I never knew how much I'd miss it till it's gone
I still listen to your favorite songs
Wishing you were in my arms
I never knew how much I'd miss it till it's gone
I still listen to your favorite songs
Wishing you were in my arms
But I remember what you said
And every single feeling's dead
Every word sounds more absurd
Faith and comedy could heal the hurt
s dug out through some Christian dirt
Well am I everything you wanted?
Am I everything you never had?
I thought it was strange
How they kept me in the dark
Shouting "One day young boy you'll be a man
and you'll be guiding this old ark.
You've got a lonely heart."
Oh but a lonely heart
Facing me
A false belief
And I never thought the books I read
Would make me who I want to be
Well am I everything you wanted?
Am I everything you never had?
I thought it was strange
How they kept me in the dark
Shouting "One day young boy you'll be a man
and you'll be guiding this old ark.
You've got a lonely heart."
Oh but a lonely heart
I never knew how much I'd miss it till it's gone
I still listen to your favorite songs
Wishing you were in my arms
I never knew how much I'd miss it till it's gone
I still listen to your favorite songs
Wishing you were in my arms
I never knew how much I'd miss it till it's gone
I still listen to your favorite songs
Wishing you were in my arms
