Nobody's Gonna Save My Soul

(album: The Mess We've Made - 2020)

I've been on this earth long enough to know
Nobody 'round here's gonna save my soul
I've searched high, I've searched low
Nobody 'round here's gonna save my soul

You can sit back and judge me
Whatever makes you smile
You can point all your fingers
But I'm not on trial

This house of hypocrisy
Is all you've ever built
You only act like a saint
To hide your own guilt

I've been on this earth long enough to know
Nobody 'round here's gonna save my soul
I've searched high, I've searched low
Nobody 'round here's gonna save my soul

Some things never change
Until you walk that mile
History wouldn't have to repeat itself
If we listened once in a while

I'll never stop you from believing
What you feel to be true
But why not practice what you're preaching
To get a better view

I've been on this Earth long enough to know
Nobody 'round here's gonna save my soul
I've searched high, I've searched low
Nobody 'round here's gonna save my soul

Are you a believer?
Are you a deceiver?
Is it getting hard to tell?
Do you ever realize
All those prying eyes
Never take a look at themselves?

I've been on this earth long enough to know
Nobody 'round here's gonna save my soul
I've searched high, I've searched low
Nobody 'round here's gonna save my soul
