talking to God

You said you don't feel right Talking to God Like he has no place In the things you must do Eye for an eye In the name of what's right So I'll speak the word From the heart of you Slung on your shoulder's The burden you carry Hung in your heart Are the tears you've yet buried You have no time to be Friends with your grief A scream cannot breathe While its stuck in your teeth If I'm not careful I'll inhale the smoke And find myself on the Side of the road Staring at unclean hands As I try and try to understand If you're not careful You won't flee the scene For a choice you made at 17 When honor made you a man As I try and try to understand Home is a hard place For omission to live As it faces the scrutinizing Glare of the truth Dread blooms a new flower In an abandoned building Where unanswered questions Take root But you hold onto silence To spare them what you can 'Cause it's what you Have to do as a man You have no time to Reach out for a hand, There is no home without Somewhere to land If I'm not careful I'll inhale the smoke Find myself on the Side of the road Staring at unclean hands As I try and try to understand If you're not careful You won't flee the scene For a choice you made at 17 When honor made you a man As I try and try to understand As I try and try to understand Let me try to understand
