Everybody drinks the water from the murky pool,
Surely as you think you're well, you know your belly aches,
Everybody learns religion at the blind man's school,
Will you reach for Heaven when the preacher charms the snake?
Is your faith so right?
Are you so blessed?
Everybody wanders in the forest,
Is your heart so true?
Count the butts and bottles in the morning, when we're gone,
Fools agree reality is more than we should bear,
How do you gaze into the sun from dusk to dawn?
We love the truth enough to die, but we won't swear.
Is your faith so right?
Are you so blessed?
Everybody wanders in the forest,
Is your heart so true?
Are you so good?
Everybody wanders in the woods.
Everybody begs the juror, "Be more than merciful, for the crimes we celebrate, for bigotry we learn,"
Everybody drinks the water from the murky pool,
Surely as it heals your soul, you feel your body burn.
Is your faith so right?
Are you so blessed?
Everybody wanders in the forest,
Is your heart so true?
Are you that good?
Everybody wanders in the woods,
Everybody wanders in the forest,
Everybody wanders in the wilderness.
