Every little raindrop knows your name,
everybody thinks I died of shame,
well I'm satisfied to take the blame,
and the world you left, is just the same.
Even when they took you down,
I turned my back and headed into town,
and I found myself a place to drown,
drank all that money down.
Well I'll admit, I always wanted more,
the malcontent starin' back from the shore,
you singin' "I am the light,
I am the way"
"but we deserve better..."
is all I could say,
is all that I could say.
Every little fool upon his knees,
prayin' for someone to appease,
caught between you and the pharisees,
with nowhere to run to now.
Every face wonderin',
how to free themselves of sin,
well they didn't need your suffering
they had more than enough to go round.
Well I'll admit, I always wanted more,
the malcontent starin' back from the shore,
you singin' "I am the light,
I am the way"
"but we deserve better..."
is all I could say,
is all that I could say
