Bad Religion
As long as I remember
I was left all by myself
When trouble crossed my way i stood alone
My old man hit the bottle
My mom was running scared
The old forgotten prayers turned to stone
I'm searching for identity
I don't know who I am
The past has cast a shadow over me
Like a bad religion
The only one I know
I never had no shelter
Never had a place to go
A bad religion
My life is make-believe
Bad religion
I'm beggin' for relief
I tried to break the circle
To break the vicious spell
But the past is always heavy on my mind
I'm dancing with the devil
A dangerous romance
A daring way to leave it all behind
I'm searching for identity
I don't know who I am
The past has cast a shadow over me
Like a bad religion
The only one I know
I never had no shelter
Never had a place to go
A bad religion
My life is make-believe
Bad religion
I need someone to talk to
Someone to understand
I need a friend to lend a helping hand
I'm gonna pull myself together
Shed this battered skin
I'm ready for the challenge
This loser's out to win
Like a bad religion
The only one I know
I never had no shelter
Never had a place to go
A bad religion
My life is make-believe
Bad religion
I'm beggin' for relief
Bad religion
