Fool With A Fancy Guitar |
It’s so easy to cash in these chips on my shoulders |
So easy to loose this old tongue like a tiger |
It’s easy to let all this bitterness smolder |
Just to hide it away like a cigarette lighter |
It’s easy to curse and to hurt and to hinder |
It’s easy to not have the heart to remember |
That I am a priest and a prince in the Kingdom of God |
I’ve got voices that scream in my head like a siren |
Fears that I feel in the night when I sleep |
Stupid choices I made when I played in the mire |
Like a kid in the mud on some dirty blind street |
I’ve got sorrow to spare, I’ve got loneliness too |
I’ve got blood on these hands that hold on to the truth |
That I am a priest and a prince in the Kingdom of God |
I swore on the Bible not to tell a lie |
But I’ve lied and lied |
And I crossed my heart and I hoped to die |
And I’ve died and died |
But if it’s true that you gathered my sin in your hand |
And you cast it as far as the east is from the west |
If it’s true that you put on the flesh of a man |
And you walked in my shoes through the shadow of death |
If it’s true that you dwell in the halls of my heart |
Then I’m not just a fool with a fancy guitar |
No, I am a priest and a prince in the Kingdom of God |
