Pete Rose and Babe Ruth
I'll tell you how it went
You know the time we spent
Trying to make something of us?
Something we knew but never was
Your life is down on the bed
And spoken tongues with the dead
The times you saw me lose my cool
The stares were blank, the words were cruel
What if I was the problem the whole time?
I'll be forgiveness and oblige
The ground just opened wide and ate me whole
Why am I so happy I could die?
There were no words to say goodbye
The ground just opened wide and ate you whole
If you can figure out sin
They never put a man on the moon and
No one knows the truth
Pete Rose and Babe Ruth
What if you got there to see
That it's not what you believed?
No blinding lights or smiling teeth
I tell you you're wrong all along
You tell me that you hate me
What if I was the problem the whole time?
I'll be forgiveness and oblige
The ground just opened wide and ate me whole
Why am I so happy I could die?
There were no words to say goodbye
The ground just opened wide and ate you whole
I'm always looking for the answers and wondering why
The rules were ever made for us if we never
abide What if I was the problem the whole time?
I'll be forgiveness and oblige
The ground just opened wide and ate me whole
Why am I so happy I could die?
There were no words to say goodbye
The ground just opened wide and ate you whole
You know the time we spent
Trying to make something of us?
Something we knew but never was
Your life is down on the bed
And spoken tongues with the dead
The times you saw me lose my cool
The stares were blank, the words were cruel
What if I was the problem the whole time?
I'll be forgiveness and oblige
The ground just opened wide and ate me whole
Why am I so happy I could die?
There were no words to say goodbye
The ground just opened wide and ate you whole
If you can figure out sin
They never put a man on the moon and
No one knows the truth
Pete Rose and Babe Ruth
What if you got there to see
That it's not what you believed?
No blinding lights or smiling teeth
I tell you you're wrong all along
You tell me that you hate me
What if I was the problem the whole time?
I'll be forgiveness and oblige
The ground just opened wide and ate me whole
Why am I so happy I could die?
There were no words to say goodbye
The ground just opened wide and ate you whole
I'm always looking for the answers and wondering why
The rules were ever made for us if we never
abide What if I was the problem the whole time?
I'll be forgiveness and oblige
The ground just opened wide and ate me whole
Why am I so happy I could die?
There were no words to say goodbye
The ground just opened wide and ate you whole
