Its Hard to Be Religious When Certain People are Never Incinerated by Bolts of Lightning
Mayday Parade
[Verse 1]
You’re asking the questions but not listening to the answers you get
That must be hard to do
It must be about as hard as forgetting your best friends
You said we’d leave no one behind
To prove what you had wasn’t dead inside
But we know, yeah, everyone knows what a selfish prick you’ve become

[Chorus]
And I remember when one single moment was enough
To convince yourself to jump in because you wanted to
It’s not that far
At least it didn’t seem so from down there
But from up here
It seems that everything I love is so far away
There used to be many things that I could hold and touch
And grab onto in stormy weather
These days we have each other
(These days)

[Post-Chorus]
These days
[Verse 2]
Did you honestly think anything would be different this time around?
I’m sure you’ve got a reason and it’s profound
Believe anything as long as it never lets you down
Yeah, yeah, yeah

[Chorus]
And I remember when one single moment was enough
To convince yourself to jump in because you wanted to
It’s not that far
At least it didn’t seem so from down there
But from up here
It seems that everything I love is so far away
There used to be many things that I could hold and touch
And grab onto in stormy weather
These days we have each other

[Bridge 1]
These days
But we know
Yeah, everyone knows what a selfish prick you’ve become

[Instrumental break]

[Bridge 2]
And we all give love for a moment
And we all get hurt together
And we all give love for a moment
And we all get hurt together
And we all give love for a moment
And we all get hurt together
[Chorus]
And I remember when one single moment was enough
To convince yourself to jump in because you wanted to
It’s not that far
At least it didn’t seem so from down there
But from up here
It seems that everything I love is so far away
There used to be many things that I could hold and touch
And grab onto in stormy weather
These days we have each other
