"Forsaken" lyrics
Hungover Sunday morning in a church pew
Smelling like cigarettes and hard booze
And every word of the sermon feels like it was written just for me
So ashamed I don't want nobody to see (Nobody to see)
The pastor looking right into my dead soul, yeah
I swear to God it feels like he already knows (He already knows)
I look around the room and so does everybody else
So I step out the church door right back into hell
Once again this world is breaking me
Got me wondering where my sin has taking me
'Cause I did things this week even I just can't believe
On the flip side, my religion has forsaken me
I got a couple women in my past life (Past life)
A couple women from last night (Last night)
And now I'm tiptoeing around all the lies that I can't hide
Trying to figure out how I'm gonna tell my wife (My wife)
I come home, ain't nothing in my world the same
Different faces in every single picture frame
Divorce papers on the nightstand and my bags right by the door
This war zone ain't my happy home no more
Once again this world is breaking me
It's got me wondering where my sin has taking me
'Cause I did things last night even I just can't believe
On the flip side, my family has forsaken me
Cocaine on a tour bus
Somewhere outside of Las Vegas
Another night, another city
All the blinking lights are so pretty
Ain't nothing but a dark desert on the other side (Other side)
My friends don't like my personal decisions, naw
They don't wanna be nowhere around the way I'm living
Ain't no helping hand, they don't understand
Not a thought, not a prayer, they don't give a damn
So I'm left trying to put all the pieces back together alone
Once again this world is breaking me
It's got me wondering where my sin has taking me
'Cause I've done things today even I just can't believe
On the flip side, my friends have forsaken me
So I wonder what hope looks like
'Cause ain't no forgiveness in this life
I got sin upon sin upon sin on my mind
I'm praying that these scars will fade in time
God I hope they fade
Praying that these scars are gonna fade in time
I'm so done with this world just breaking me
'Cause it don't matter where my sin is taking me
If there's one thing left in this life that I believe
It's that God never once has forsaken me
Smelling like cigarettes and hard booze
And every word of the sermon feels like it was written just for me
So ashamed I don't want nobody to see (Nobody to see)
The pastor looking right into my dead soul, yeah
I swear to God it feels like he already knows (He already knows)
I look around the room and so does everybody else
So I step out the church door right back into hell
Once again this world is breaking me
Got me wondering where my sin has taking me
'Cause I did things this week even I just can't believe
On the flip side, my religion has forsaken me
I got a couple women in my past life (Past life)
A couple women from last night (Last night)
And now I'm tiptoeing around all the lies that I can't hide
Trying to figure out how I'm gonna tell my wife (My wife)
I come home, ain't nothing in my world the same
Different faces in every single picture frame
Divorce papers on the nightstand and my bags right by the door
This war zone ain't my happy home no more
Once again this world is breaking me
It's got me wondering where my sin has taking me
'Cause I did things last night even I just can't believe
On the flip side, my family has forsaken me
Cocaine on a tour bus
Somewhere outside of Las Vegas
Another night, another city
All the blinking lights are so pretty
Ain't nothing but a dark desert on the other side (Other side)
My friends don't like my personal decisions, naw

Ain't no helping hand, they don't understand
Not a thought, not a prayer, they don't give a damn

'Cause it don't matter where my sin is taking me
If there's one thing left in this life that I believe
It's that God never once has forsaken me
