[Verse 1]
The man above says love your neighbor as you would for yourself
And you're bound to have a friend
Through every thick and thin
But for three long years I sat here drenched and tired and alone
And I have nothing earned
Should I be concerned
[Pre-Chorus 1]
I thought patience is a virtue
Or is that just another crutch
Another habit formed at home that's keeping me so out of touch
So do I stick to what I know
Ignoring everybody else
Can he really hear me through the roof or am I just screaming to myself
[Chorus 1]
Oh no, oh God
Someone's gotta tell me the truth
Or do i have to find that on my own
'cause lord i don't know
All I want's a chance to understand
Is that too much of a demand
'cause lord I
Am losing faith
In what I believed in for so long
Had my doubts don't want to be wrong
Now I don't care what I believe
I just hope that I will make things right
[Verse 2]
The man above says don't let temptation run your actions in life
Or you'll live in regret
To pay an awful debt
But temptation keeps me smiling in the darkness of night
What does he have to say
Would I still have to pay
[Pre-Chorus 2]
But to me it's so much more
Can he take the time to see
That the things which may upset him are the things that make me happy
Or is there too much on his mind to even listen to that call
Is there too much too many things
Or is he even there at all
[Chorus 2]
Oh no, oh God
Someone's gotta tell me the truth
Or do I have to find that on my own
'cause lord I don't know
All I want's a chance to understand
Is there too much of a demand
'cause lord I
Am losing faith in what I believed in for so long
Had my doubts don't care if I'm wrong
Now I don't care what I believe
I just hope that I will make things
And I don't care if I've been deceived
I just hope that I will make things right
