lyrics

The son of Adam was a sinner man
Ran to the rock, it melted in his hand
Went to the river, it was bubbling blood
Brother, this was in the days before the flood

Dishonest Abe was a devoted one
Went up the mountain with his only son
Turns out he was a lucky kid
Wasn't supposed to come down, somehow he did

I quit believing but it's not enough
As I'm falling through the haze of all this cosmic dust
I heard a story how it started up
Oh Lord, I quit believing but it's not enough

In the stories that the Bible told
Back when we had the angry God of old
At best today she's like a long lost friend
Mama, what you doing, where the hell you been?

I quit believing but it's not enough
As I'm falling through the haze of all this cosmic dust
I heard a story how it started up
Oh Lord, I quit believing but it's not enough

I wrestle demons and they're in my blood
Born who I am but it's just not enough
I do better for the one I love
I wrestle demons and they're in my blood

I quit believing but it's not enough
As I'm falling through the haze of all this cosmic dust
I heard a story how it started up
Oh Lord, I quit believing but it's not enough
