God Knows

Fortune told and disappointed
A dollar and a dream is not what it seems
I'll forget you every day
Like I forget you in my dreams

You're all I ever wanted
You're all I'd ever need
Come back and watch me bleed alone
See the flesh and see the bone

God knows that I know that he knows
But do you suppose he cares?
God knows that I know that he knows
But is anybody there?

Open-ended conversations
Speak or spell it out for me
It's in my mind and out that window
And carried by the birds to sea

You're all I ever wanted
You're all I'd ever need
Come back and watch me breathe alone
I can take air on my own

God knows that I know that he knows
But do you suppose he cares?
God knows that I know that he knows
But is anybody there?

I'll forget you every day
I'll wipe the smell and taste away
And forget you every day

God knows that I know that he knows
But do you suppose he cares?
God knows that I know that he knows
But is anybody there?
God knows that I know that he knows
But do you suppose he cares?
God knows that I know that he knows
But is anybody there?

Glory bound, glory bound
Glory bound, glory bound
Glory bound, glory bound
Glory bound, glory bound

I think it would be a good idea
If every day, every individual
Would look at himself in the mirror
Earnestly and ask the question
"Who am I?"
"Am I a weak person?
Am I a defeated person?
Am I an inferior person?"
Not at all

I am a child of God
And I was intended to get on top of things
And I was intended to stay there
