There was a time that I had nothing to explain Oh, this mess I had made But then things got complicated My innocence has all but faded Oh, this mess I have made
And I don't believe in God So I can't be saved All alone as I've learned to be In this mess I have made
All the untested virtue The things I said I'd never do Least of all to you
I know he's kind and true I know that he is good to you He'll never care for you more than I do
But I don't believe in love So I can't be tamed All alone as I've learned to be In this mess I have made the same mistakes Over and over again
There are rooms in this house that I don't open any more Dusty books and pictures on the floor
That she will never see She'll never see that part of me I want to be for her What I could never be for you
But I don't believe in God So I can't be saved All alone as I've learned to be In this mess I have made
