[Verse 1]

Last night I wrote a prayer

To the water in my head

Read the book my mother read

See I don't believe in God

At least not one that's not

As human as me

And anyone, that ever was

[Chorus]

See I have to believe

There's some kind of deity

In lonely eyes

In looming trees

I can't count upon

Heaven or hell or law

But I'm scared and lonely

Amen

[Verse 2]

In history there's faith

When children die, people pray

And that's just human nature

It's my instinct to believe

There is something more than me

But I can't name what I can't see

[Chorus]

See I have to believe

There's some kind of deity

In broken bones

In skin that bleeds

I can't count upon

Heaven or hell or law

When I'm scared and lonely

Amen

[Outro]

Amen

Amen

Amen

Amen

Amen

Amen

Amen

Amen
