I saw Jesus in a parking lot
he said to give the world what I got
but nobody believed me
yeah they said I was crazy
and now it's gonna turn me to stone
like milk for the baby that never came home
it's the saddest thing that I've ever known
and can't nobody save me
Sometimes the heart breaks
just like an egg hatches
tiny and barely breathing
hungry for some meaning
Sometimes the world laughs
just trying to hold the tears back
sometimes we're lonely
sometimes we're only dreaming
We were short on miracles
Guess they needed them for the war

Sometimes the world laughs
just trying to hold the tears back
sometimes we're lonely
sometimes we're only dreaming
We were short on miracles
Guess they needed them for the war
so we said "we don't believe in miracles anymore"
but I don't wanna be scared to love
I don't wanna be scared to hope
I don't wanna be scared to call out just cause there might be no answer
She misses her brother today
asks me why he went away
I say "honey, it's beyond me"
I been trying to wrap my head around the whole damn thing
trying to find the truth, trying to make it sing
sometimes the truth just seems so ugly
but I don't wanna be scared to love
I don't wanna be scared to hope
I don't wanna be scared to call out just cause there might be no answer
