about

This song is about passing by a homeless man. It's also about losing my faith. Not much else to say.

lyrics

I saw you on the street last night.
You had nothing to say.
You just kept walkin on by.
Just like every other day.
So let me ask you this.
Would you have done the same?
or am I just living a lie?
Thinking I can still be saved.

(Chorus)
Will I get into Heaven?
Even if I do you right?
Will Jesus forgive me?
For telling all those lies?
Will I get into Heaven?
Even if I lose my mind?
Would Jesus forgive me?

I swear to god I Tried.

I can't say I blame you one bit.
You don't even know my name.
but when I needed you most.
You just turned and walked away.
So let me ask you this.
Are you dumb, deaf, or blind?
Cuz you're actin like I don't exist.
and I'm left wondering Why?

(Chorus)
