lyrics

the cards told me wait by the river
the psychic said wait in my room
maybe i heard it wrong
or i’m being strung along
made the mistake of believing
that God could be speaking to me
the writing is on the wall
i’ve had a great big fall from

grace
what is my place?
where am i going?
what’s it like to feel like you’re all-knowing?
somebody tell me, please
everyone’s got it all figured out but me

horses aren’t horses, they’re messengers
though sometimes they’re silent like God
making me guess the Truth
(three five one seven eight five three five six nine five)
how is this nothing to you?
(one two five four eight five seven six one three four five)

meaning is made by the masses
i want to mean something too
but i heard they burn people like me
damned if i don’t, damned if i do

god-damned
this is not what i planned
when i said i would follow the signs
i thought i was finding more proof
now nothing is true
and i’m losing faith in this ruse
God works in mysterious ways, of that i am sure
but are God’s motives pure?

i've been searching the world, and dear God
how many worlds are there?
there's a world where i have it all
but that's not where i am
when did it get so dark?
how did i get so far?
from everything that i knew
from you, from you, from You

maybe i’m lost, maybe i’m lost, a lost cause
maybe i’m lost, maybe i’m lost, like a runaway plot
maybe i’m lost, maybe i’m lost but is that the worst thing you can be?
maybe i’m lost, i’m lost, just to see if anybody’s looking for me
maybe i’m lost, maybe i’m lost, maybe i’m lost, maybe…

(you got what you wanted...)
