White Lies, White Jesus And You

歌詞

Waking up in the middle of the night Someone you love is dying in your dreams Are you searching for the sermon in the suicide? Do you need someone to tell you what it means? If you say that Jesus gives you peace of mind That's a good enough reason for me And if it really helps you get some sleep at night I'd kill for a little of that peace You talk about the truth like you are lying I wonder who you think you're talking to Speaking of some things I've put behind me White lies, white Jesus and you Passing people on the street with picket signs Warning me of my impending doom If God's the one deciding if I make it in What gives them the power to assume? You talk about salvation like a birth right You use it like it's some kind of excuse Speaking of some things I've put behind me White lies, white Jesus and you I still hear the silence on the other line The consequence of telling you the truth The way I felt the knife turning into my side When I heard you say the words "I'll pray for you" You talk about forgiveness like a favor Like it's something that you didn't have to do Speaking of some things I've put behind me White lies, white Jesus and you White lies, white Jesus and you
