"Spirit Thing" lyrics

It's not a family trait
It's nothing that I ate
And it didn't come from skating with Holy Rollers
It's an early warning sign
It keeps my life in line
But it's so hard to define
Never mind

It's just a spirit thing
It's just a holy nudge
It's like a circuit charge in the brain
It's just a spirit thing
It's here to guard my heart
It's just a little hard to explain

It pushes when I quit
It smells a counterfeit
Sometimes it works a bit like a teleprompter
When it's teleprompting you
I pray you'll let it through
And I'll help you with the how
But for now

It's just a spirit thing
It's just a holy nudge
It's like a circuit charge in the brain
It's just a spirit thing
It's here to guard my heart
It's just a little hard to explain

(I took the pulpit)
I took the pulpit
(Then backed down again)
Then backed down again
(Some things in heaven)
Some things in heaven
(Cannot be explained)
No, they cannot be explained

Yeah, it's just a spirit thing
(I took the soapbox)
It's just a holy nudge
It's like a circuit charge in the brain
(Then backed down again)
It's just a spirit thing
(Some things in heaven)
It's here to guard my heart
It's just a little hard to explain
(Cannot be explained)

Yeah, it's just a spirit thing
(Oh, I took the airwaves)
It's just a holy nudge
It's like a circuit charge in the brain
(Then backed down again)
It's just a spirit thing
(Some things in heaven)
It's here to guard my heart
It's just a little hard to explain
(Cannot be explained, no)

It's just a spirit thing
(Oh, I took the pulpit)
It's just a holy nudge
It's like a circuit charge in the brain
(Then backed down again)
It's just a spirit thing
(Some things in heaven)
It's here to guard my heart
It's just a little hard to explain
(Cannot be explained, no)
