He comes to you in your time of need
Doesn't look almighty, but that's ok
He seems to be what you've wanted
All your life on earth
Especially since you were young.
You close your eyes and breath deeply
You envision your life before he left
You want to be forgiven for all you've done
You wish for the man yo've wanted
Especially since you were young.
You want to see what it's like after life
Drink in the fires of hell
But I'll tell you what
You don't have to do it right away
Because you're livign the life you've wanted
Especially since you were young.
