Artifice

Look at me I am the quintessential believer I am God's gift to man I am a shining example I am the perfect son So look at me So look at me I can only dream To be all you see in me I am truly a broken man Lost and slowly losing hope as I lead my best friends to sin I am a I am a... lie! I'm living a lie And all that's shining through is my incompetence I have failed I am this close To giving it all up I swear to God, I'm not making this up Just give me your attention God, why won't you listen? Won't you listen? Desolation I've lived here far too long, I know I have failed (I have failed) And still Still you care for me (you care for me) Still, you love me (still you love me) Still, God, you love me
