good person. Lyrics

("…On the night before he died, he came to the table with his friends.")

("Taking bread into his hands, he gave thanks and praise.")

("He broke the bread, and gave it to his friends saying,

'Here, eat this, all of you. This is my body to be given for you.

Do this in remembrance…'")

(Excuse me)

(Sorry)

(Yeah)

Ever since I was a kid

I was told

There's no such thing as "being good"

It's about "being holy"

The thoughts in your head are not yours

They're the devil

And you're dancing in grey territory

"Love isn't what you think it is"

"Trust these words and not your heart"

"You're a broken messed up kid"

"Tearing the world apart"

How'm I s'posed to be a good person?

When all I've ever heard is "I'm worth it"?

I don't want to be the one that you gotta save

When all of it falls away,

Show me what it does to the children

To hear that they're "broke" to be human

When I just wanna be…

Show me a hand that will hold me

And I'll show you something that's holy

I'll show you all the people who are really blessed

Are fighting every day just to find some rest

In a hateful world you've created

But that's not how I was created

I am finally me

I am finally free

And I just wanna be

A good person.
