No god could teach me what my father did

No promise of heaven kept me warm when my mother tucked me in

No hope for salvation kept me from sin

Just a small intuition not to do what all the bad ones did

And what comes next is a mystery to me

I guess I'll have to wait and see

'Cause everything I ever knew could just fall apart

I only know what I've been told

And I was told what others know

And others know what they were told

And all we know is what we're told

And we were told what others know

And all they know is what they're told
