The Atheist

You turned an atheist into a prayer

You turned a patriot into a traitor

The person that loved you the most

Into goodbye on a handwritten note

Ooh, I can't wait for you

This is me letting you go

Rip you out of my bones

Leave you out in the cold

With everything that you broke

I hope you know

You turned a family home into a crater

You turned your own flesh and blood to a stranger

The words that I wish that you spoke

Turned into glass in the back of my throat

Ooh, I can't pray for you

This is me letting you go

Rip you out of my bones

Leave you out in the cold

With everything that you broke

I hope you know

This is me letting you go

Tear you out of my soul

I swear that God only knows

I swear that God only knows

God only knows

I woke up with this voice inside my head

And it said, "Everything you lost will be restored"

Was it a delusion, the voice of God, my own subconscious?

I've got no idea

All I know is I clung onto it as if it was true, like some kinda life raft

And things started changing

So much joy came back into my life

I don't know whether it was some kinda prophecy

Or some kind of delusion that became true simply because I believed it

Maybe that's what faith is
