religion can be a cloak, a crutch, an excuse, and so many other things, unless you take what you've learned and show that it means something.
Leave your old skin at my door
perhaps when life is over
You won't need it any more.
The words you build your life on
Have no power 'til you try
And until you understand this
You still will wonder 'why'.
Why won't people listen
To what I have to say?
Why don't I get an answer
When I bow my head to pray?
If you build your life on losing
You'll never, ever win
And you won't become perfection
If you drown yourself in sin.

The Drowning
When you become perfectionLeave your old skin at my door
perhaps when life is over
You won't need it any more.
The words you build your life on
Have no power 'til you try
And until you understand this
You still will wonder 'why'.
Why won't people listen
To what I have to say?
Why don't I get an answer
When I bow my head to pray?
If you build your life on losing
You'll never, ever win
And you won't become perfection
If you drown yourself in sin.
