lyrics

I don’t believe in Jesus anymore.
So go ahead and take this soul from me,
If there’s somewhere I should redeem it,
Please tell me who to see
But I don’t believe in Jesus anymore

Kneeling at the crossroads is a funny place to be,
The wind kicks sand into your eyes but it don’t feel like misery
‘cause you wash up, then you stand up and I bet you feel so clean
But I don’t believe in Jesus anymore

I don’t believe in Jesus anymore
So go ahead and climb that cross for me
I’ll remember you fondly, but my savior you won’t be
Cause I don’t believe in Jesus anymore

Sing a song up there for me please?
Not one of your slow ones, isn’t that what you told me?
Because we are too young to be jaded by verse and revelry
But I don’t believe in Jesus anymore

I don’t believe in Jesus anymore
So won’t you please stop hiding?
Behind all your sad burdens, pretending you are king
Cause I don’t believe in Jesus anymore

I’ll bet it’s hard to be the only one who cares
And that it saves you from your sins to think the rest of the world just stares
So tell me more of the war you’re waging for the hurt and for the scared
But I don’t believe in Jesus anymore

I don’t believe in love anymore
‘cause love is too hard to redeem
So if you fall into it, please never tell me
Because I don’t believe in love anymore.

Steel yourself with words, those clever caskets
Promise it’s not love, only habit
Nurse your bruised ego, but don’t come off too desperate
‘cause I don’t believe in love anymore.
