This Must Be It

Be warned: possibly offensive? Not to me, but you never know

Well I’m nobody’s savior, but if you’re going my way I suppose I’ll lend a hand. Or a car, or a ride, but I’m no one but my father's to command. And now I realize, that topsy turvy never hurt no one. But it sure does tangle, weaving paths together and undone. Well I’m surely not suspended on a cross with nails becoming my best friends. But lets pretend, we’ll go back to the beginning from the end. And I’m no miracle worker, dripping sullen praises from head to toe. But I suppose, if you’re going my way I’ll trade a quid pro quo.

This must be how Jesus Christ feels, high up on his tree. Oh, what a pain, but its probably the best damn sunset he ever did see. And this must be how Jesus Christ feels, closer to God than me. But I think he’d agree, it was the still the best damn sunset he ever did see.

Well I don’t walk on water, but if you’re drowning I’ll do my best to lend a hand. Please understand, I’m no giver of life to reprimand. I’m no holy trinity, leave your prayers in someone else’s hands. And just maybe God doesn’t always have the best god damned plans.

This must be how Jesus Christ feels, high up on his tree. Oh, what a pain, but its probably the best damn sunset he ever did see. And this must be how Jesus Christ feels, closer to God than me. But I think he’d agree, it was the still the best damn sunset he ever did see.
