Lyrics

I was born secular and inconsolable 
I heard that he walked, he walked the Earth 

God goes where he wants 
And who knows where he is now 
Not in me 

It's the way mothers greet their sons when its a moment too late 
It's the law of the land that sometimes the dam just breaks 

God works in mysterious ways 
And God gives and then he takes 
From me
From me
From me
