(des)crente

Has the light spread, or the darkness shrunk?

Do the nights not fall anymore?

In the silver chain of lakes I sunk

'Til something hauled me ashore

And God was watching with his beady eye

Salivating, waiting for my cry

But then she came by, kicked the angels from the sky

Now I'm an unbeliever

'Cause she's a breathing, walking, talking heathen

And I need her

When the darkness came, like a spreading stain

I could sometimes feel myself fall

Through the black drain of a loveless world

To a place where cowards crawl

When God was watching, I could feel him sneer

Easy pickings, pulling prayers from the fear

But then she came by, kicked the angels from the sky

And out of nothing, she materialized

A vision with her wings missing, she opened up my eyes

A mission ready for kissing so the dead could be revived

If God is watching, surely he'll despair

Another sucker lost to one who's really there

'Cause when she came by, well the angels quit the sky

An unbeliever

I was on my knees, yeah

I was sinking deeper

I was praying "Please... bring me some relief", yeah

My mind was dead, erased

I was flesh and blood asking to be saved

I was ripe for the grip of some phony holy fellowship

And now I need her

Now I can feel her

Now I can see her

Let me testify

Without no fear, yeah

I'm an unbeliever
