God I messed up again
I didn't pay your preachers ten
I gave it to someone in need
Does that mean you won't bless me
God I'm trying hard
Not to curse in my car
Even when the traffics bad
Did you ever get really mad

I'm on my way to church
I'm gonna sing songs even if it hurts
But honestly
I feel you more when I leave
I can't figure out quite why
All of the smoke and the lights
Don't bring me closer to
This real world's walking and talking to you

God I skipped this time
I slept in till nine
Instead I got down on my knees
I just tried to hear you breathe
God I'm a little scared
To say what goes on in there
Feels more like a movie
Like a tithing experience

I'm on my way to church
I'm gonna sing songs even if it hurts
But honestly
I feel you more when I leave
I can't figure out quite why
All of the smoke and the lights
Don't bring me closer to

This real world's walking and talking to you
And I don't want to accuse what you love
If it's important to you then make it important to me
But there's just some things that I can't quite understand
If you made the world
Then why does church feel made by man
But I'm on my way to church

Gonna sing songs even if it hurts
But honestly
I feel you more when I leave
I can't figure out quite why
All of the smoke and the lights
Don't bring me closer to
This real world's walking and talking to you
