Mess
[ B. Folds ]

 
 

from the Sony/550 Ben Folds Five release
The Unauthorized Biography of Reinhold Messner

 
     
 

There was a time that I had nothing to explain
All this mess I had made
But then things got complicated
My innocence has all but faded
All this mess I have made

And I don't believe in god
So I can't be saved
All alone as I learn to be
In this mess I have made

Oh, the untested virtue
The things I said I'd never do
Least of all, to you

And though he's kind and true
I know that he is good to you
He'll never care for you more than I do

But I don't believe in love
So I can't be tamed
All alone, as I've learned to be
In this mess I have made

The same mistake
Over and over again

There are rooms in this house
That I don't open any more
Dusty books and pictures on the floor

But she will never see
She'll never see that part of me
I want to be for her
What I could never be for you

And I don't believe in God
So I can't be saved
All alone as I've learned to be
In this mess I have made
