"Lord" lyrics

This life goes on since you left me
But Lord, it don't need to
And I'm just thinkin' about you, gal, while you forget me
You were my only truth

And I'm wondering how I could've been so taken, mistaken our love for blood
It seems I was fakin'
A man's heart is his own, and only he can break it
I'd start all over alone if only I could take it
And take this honey

Now time takes its time to pass on by me
You won't find me in no places of old
In my mind, I've gone rewind to times of you smilin'
It's a crime you left me so cold

And I cannot trust myself with this hell I am accepting
I stumbled, and I fell, still hoping you'd come protect me
I tried to forget you
That was just a reminder
You've turned the world full of shit
Made it a little bit kinder

So take my breath, God, take it away
By takin' hers
Now, Lord, what was saved
To think that it is you, God, that fools kneel and pray
Well, I found my true love, now she's buried away
