losing my religion



you claim you're a god
so i'll worship you by day
down on my knees
and next to you i'll pray

when you take me to church
i question my faith
do i love you
or do you make me feel safe

we kissed in the car to 505
now you greet me with goodbye

and i know i'm capricious
but you're so consistent
were you just loyal
or am i just persistent

we both agreed it was over
i won't touch your skin
but when i'm alone
i think what could've been
