lyrics

You never will, you never will, you never will, you never will know
What's gonna happen to you when you've gotta go
Your boyfriend says you better be a good girl or you'll go a bad place
If someone said that shit to me, I'd slap his damn face
You've been with that creep for so long, everyone's wondering why
I know your parents like him, but girl you've gotta grow up sometime
There's more in this world than is in your little leatherbound book
Get out of your hometown and take a good look

You can turn away from god
He don't love you, he's a fraud
You can change the road you're on
I've seen it done
I've seen it done

If you've paid attention, you know Jesus was a hippie at heart
He preached unconditional love, so they tore him apart
But now we live in better days, it's okay to let go of hate
Though according to your boyfriend, that's what makes America great
Your soul is in your brain which is a mushy purple thing in your skull
I understand that might make you uncomfortable
Be that as it may, it doesn't make it any less beautiful
The way I see it, heaven's a connection between two people

You can leave your master's chair
He don't love you, he's not there
You were blind, but now you see
You're finally free
You're finally free

Jesus loves his fancy cheeses, evergreens, and lanterns that glow
A sad-as-shit song crying on a busted up radio
Now I'm not saying your boyfriend might not be an alright guy in his right
He loves his family and he knows how to be polite
And hey, it's your love life, who am I to try to stand in your way
I don't wanna rain on your parade or ruin your day
But don't tell me that sob story, "I know he will always be true"
'Cause if you're gonna sing your truth to me, then I will sing mine to you

He don't love you, he don't care
He is nothing, he is air
I am flesh and blood and bone
You're not alone
You're not alone

I will take you in my arms
I will keep you safe from harm
I will shield you with my love
That's real love
And he don't love you like I do
