Only God Knows Why

I knew everything before I knew God

I must admit my view of things was odd

I was the authority on living a great life

It's okay to stab them in the back

If you wipe off the knife

 

My life is a total mess

I admit that I'm powerless

There are things that I can't deny

Only God knows why

And I can only guess

 

I had everything before the Lord had me

To me sin was such a luxury

I cried while mortified

That you would find me out

I'll sign all the invitations

Just don't send them out

 

My life is a total mess

I admit that I'm powerless

There are things that I can't deny

Only God knows why

And I can only guess

My life is a total mess

I admit that I'm powerless

There are things that I can't deny

Only God knows why

And I can only guess

 

I would have hated

To be berated

In the name of the Lord

I would have hated

To be berated

In the name of the Lord

 

I knew everything before I knew God

I must admit my view of things was odd

I was the authority on living a great life

It's okay to stab them in the back

If you wipe off the knife

 

My life is a total mess

I admit that I'm powerless

There are things that I can't deny

Only God knows why

And I can only guess

My life is a total mess

I admit that I'm powerless

There are things that I can't deny

Only God knows why

And I can only guess
