We were sitting in the car, I didn’t mean to fall so hard
I didn’t feel my heart
But life is much too short, and I feel like I’ll be gone soon
And where’d that get me
I put all my faith in you
We bonded over shoes and Orange Julius
I feel like such a fool
I know you’re married I was there
At your daughter’s confirmation
Standing next to all your other children
Crying, none of you knew why
And if my every hopeless sigh could be an answered prayer
I would have been born with different genitalia
We’d have met so long ago
But Jesus ain’t as merciful as other deities
Especially to Catholics guilt-ridden
With their sins all unforgiven
By our Father up in heaven
Who knows only obligation
And feels none of our pain
