This World Is Not My Home (I Was Only Passing Through)

Heard your high hopes hanging on for dear life Singing sweetly your damaged tune And I've learned by now to never ask why When I'm talking to you Sadly my mind wandered when you said "I can not take one more day of these blues And This World is not My Home, I was Only Passing Through" Mary Sue maybe life's just miserable It's just something we've gotta get through And Samuel and Paul and Peter, they all Just know what we already knew Still she's had her days to sing her God's praise And good times she's had a few But This World was not her Home, she was Only Passing Through Well I've taken time and I've gouged at my mind Figured either way I will lose Useless in love, enlightened and numb The darkness will always loom Maybe I'll take a pen to a legal pad and Scribble below a swinging noose This World is not My Home, I was Only Passing Through Mama, I've tried and been buried alive Your boy ain't feelin' well it is true Under a dose that's lethal to most But to me, It's just an afternoon So I'll think back on times through breath of cheap wine The words I remember best from you This World is not My Home, I was Only Passing Through
