I was born with the wrong kind of brain

I stare at the sky like, what the hell’s that name?

If god’s in charge, he’s a lousy clown

Left me here to laugh and fall face-down

My hands are full of dirt and doubt

I bite my tongue, then spit it out

I tried to pray, got bored instead

Found a dead fly in my head

Tell me why the holy smoke

Always smells like a bad joke

I want truth, I get a plate

Of stale crumbs and second-rate

I don’t get faith

I don’t get it, man

I don’t get faith

I don’t give a damn

I read the rules, they read like shit

Some old fear with a fake outfit

Heaven sounds like a waiting room

Hell sounds like my aunt’s perfume

I’m not wise, I’m just confused

A walking bruise in cheap-ass shoes

If there’s a plan, it’s drunk and mean

And I’m the punchline in between

Kiss the ring, kiss the sky

I still ask, “why?”

I got sins, I got jokes

I got smoke coming off my spokes

I don’t get faith

I don’t get it, man

I don’t get faith

I don’t give a damn

Maybe I’m the asshole here

Maybe fear just made it clear

But I can’t bow to a ghost

When my own head’s the one I trust the most

I don’t get faith

I don’t get it, man

I don’t get faith

I don’t give a damn

I don’t get faith

I don’t get it, man

I don’t get faith

I don’t give a damn

I’m a mess with a mouth

A holy joke gone south

If there’s meaning, it’s hiding from me

And I’m laughing on my knees
