My Religion

[Verse 1]
I almost got t-boned by a car
Making a left hand turn on Griffith park
And the feeling of adrenaline was so much better
Than the anger stomping cracks in my heart
The child inside me, throwing tantrums in the dark

[Verse 2]
I got the pride and wind knocked out of me
By a right hook that I just didn't see
And you're not pulling punches
You're just pulling my strings
Crippling me with cliche-coated rosaries, so

[Chorus]
Stab me in the back, but make it clean
Hide the blade and lie to the police
You might've fooled your mother
Sure as hell not fooling me
Just like blind religion, you're too hard to believe
Oh you were my religion I no longer believe

[Verse 3]
It took a couple phone calls and a drink
To get the truth to spill on out of me
And I should've seen it sooner
I just didn't thing you'd choose her
You lie and try to play it tongue-in-cheek
And I relive every second, while you take hours out of me, so

[Chorus]
Stab me in the back, but make it clean
Hide the blade and lie to the police
You might've fooled your mother
Sure as hell not fooling me
Just like blind religion, you're too hard to believe
Oh you were my religion I no longer believe

[Bridge]
Judas and Brute at the table playing cards
You're not the kind of person that you tell yourself you are
I don't mind saying it
I'll give it to you straight
Or I must just stand up and walk away

[Chorus]
While you stab me in the back, make it clean
Hide the blade and lie to the police
You might've fooled your mother
Sure as hell not fooling me
Just like blind religion, it's a constant wait and see
It's just like my religion to pull the rug out from underneath me

You were my religion
You were my religion
You were my religion I no longer believe
