Lyrics

Why do babies get cancer?
Why are all my questions unanswered?
Mother Mary and the Holy Spirit
Oh if you’re there, let me hear it

Baptized in a pool of my shame
Oh I’m only a child, who else is there to blame?
My body is precious until it’s been touched
Well I’m 25 now and all used up


My mama says that God has a plan
But my bones are breaking and my skins gone thin
Oh Jesus why don’t you save yourself
Don’t worry I’ll be fine down here in hell
Don’t worry I’ll be fine down here in hell

But I feel God in the trees
And in the dirt beneath my feet
Oh I feel God in the salty air,
I feel God everywhere

Guilty for all the feelings felt
Whippings at the hand of the Bible Belt
Love your neighbor as thyself
But what do we do when no one loves themselves?

Saying the wrongs words and doing the wrong things
Oh I’m only a child, not allowed to be
Come before you to wash my hands clean
And in every open cut I feel the sting

My mama says that God has a plan
But my hearts been breaking and my lights gone dim
Oh Jesus why don’t you save yourself
Don’t worry I’ll be fine down here in hell
Don’t worry I’ll be fine down here in hell

But I see God in a hug
And when two people are in love
I see God in the spring
I see God in everything
