Just a Word
You don't have all the answers, girl
To sin, salvation, and love
I wish you were as strong as you claim
But in the end, all you have are words
Don't even bother
No one else can tell you
'Cause no one else knows
In the end they're just words
You can scream and shout
Pretend you have the answer
You'd have to know the question
Have to know the difference
Just because he's wrong
You think you're right
Break it down to the core
And you'll find another lie
Don't even bother
No one else can tell you
'Cause no one else knows
In the end they're just words
Just words
You were under the impression
That you could find an explanation
And the terrible assumption
That it would do anything
To save you
To save you
Don't even bother
No one else can tell you
'Cause no one else knows
In the end, they're just words
In the end, they're words
Yeah, all you have are words
And your words aren't gonna save you
In the end
Your words won't save you
