faithless lady

she said I believe

but I don't have any faith

she said listen, what can I say

It's been too hard living
I been through too much shit

you know when I was young I lost a kid,
I lost my boy

and his death destroyed

our marriage, a miscarriage

of unearthly justice

and the fortune teller told me

he would be perfectly healthy

yeah he lied and I tried 

to understand it, but I couldn't

and what followed

left me as hollow
as a nut shell

the hell, of the divorce

I was divorced from my faith

yeah I had to be brave

I had to do it all on my own

and that's when I told her, you know

we human people 

we're so fickle 

with every new pickle

however bitter, however sour
slowly, some how

we lose touch with the greater power
with life itself
and it will pass and it doesn't mean

that you mean nothing

it's just well

-kind of hard to explain-
