lyrics

Fire and brimstone, old friend
You’re as scared as a sheep with no Sheppard
Now that you’ve found the path to righteousness
You’ve “direction” but you’re still as lost as ever

He is great in a book about Him, I do not detest it
But was it not I who was holding your hand
When you were just plain wicked

In the end, you’ll choose the good lord, whoa
‘Cause I could never be everywhere or mean so much to anyone

You were my brother in ironclad armor
My sanctuary’s keep
Now, you’re another reason
For me to not believe

‘Cause he is great in a book about Him, I do not detest it
But was it not I who was holding your hand
When you were just plain wicked

In the end, you’ll choose the good lord, whoa
‘Cause I could never be everywhere or mean so much to anyone

Life gets convoluted
One moment we seek companionship
But the next we grow to disapprove it

In the end, you’ll choose the good lord, whoa
Though I’ll never know why he and I are mutually exclusive
