I tried to write a song, and keep it 3 minutes long Get in, get out, nobody gets hurt And I tried a thousand times to fit God between the lines But I'm finding out that doesn't really work
I just don't have the words to say, cause words only get in my way I must apologize, I have the hardest time Finding something to define a God that I canýt define And even if I could, it would take way too long If all I've got's a 3 minute song
I've got a hundred metaphors, and if I had a million more I could never ever seem to sum this up Besides, how can some melody communicate eternity? Itýs like trying to fit the ocean in a cup
I just don't have the words to say, cause words only get in my way I must apologize, I have the hardest time Finding something to define a God that I canýt define And even if I could, it would take way too long If all I've got's a 3 minute song
I'll never find the words to say cause words only get in the way I would like to dumb this down to 3 chords, or maybe 4 But I've tried and I can't and I won't cause there will always be more So I apologize, I can't seem to get it right
I just don't have the words to say, cause words only get in my way I must apologize, I have the hardest time Finding something to define a God that I canýt define And even if I could, it would take way too long If all I've got's a 3 minute song
