I Hope God Don't Mind If We Talk Awhiles

If the headlines could go one week
Without a shepherd molesting his sheep
God never hurt me, it’s the people in His name
His voice they are called by somehow wants the same thing;
A platform for fame
I can see through everything about you
A lonely puppet on a horse so high
I can smell you 'cause I’m the same
Tell 'em with conviction and believe what you say
After work, she came home to talk about the night before
It helps if I’m holding her hand
We laid on our backs, let our guts spill on the floor
She doesn’t trust me sometimes, just 'cause I’m a man
Try to understand
When I get pissed, I go silent
And deaf
And a grinning match starts somewhere out of my lips
So I’ll step out back and burn one for you on the steps
And give it awhile
And curse at the wind until I come back in
I work hard til everyone can see it
Love, I swear I won’t have time to live
'Cause she deserves more and we want kids
Even though that I’m still not sure that we know how to raise them
Her heart is cluttered, happy and full
Like a living room on Christmas morning
The future’s blurry but altogether bright
Like a lens that’s out of focus that still lets in the light
Does settle down mean settling?
My stubborn mouth will never choke on pride
Better plan on surrendering
I’m afraid you married someone ugly on the inside
