The Believer
Chris Thile
You can point and laugh
I'm sure he's used to that
Using faith like an acrobat 'til the net breaks
He won't get upset
That though we've never met
I know, everything he's said 'cause a friend once told me
He's got hell fire in his eyes
There is madness behind the lies
He would burn us all alive just to prove his point
God save the believer
We mistake for a deceiver
'Cause it makes us feel better
The time has come and gone
To say what's right and wrong
People like him don't belong 'cause we're all okay
You'd better write him off
Without a second thought
'Cause thinking just leads to getting caught in the traps he sets, like
Who is that on his knees?
It's that daring young man from the flying trapeze
Crying "father, father, help me please" well good luck, pal
'Cause you're gonna need it
God save the believer
We mistake for a deceiver
'Cause it makes us feel better
He's got hell fire in his eyes
There is madness behind the lies
He would burn us all alive just to prove his point
God save the believer
We mistake for a deceiver
'Cause it makes us feel better
