You seem to linger around
Come and go in a rush
Only make your presence known
When a man’s down on his luck
Takin’ friends like a debt owed
And the well’s runnin’ dry
I call you all year
But you only wanna talk at Christmas time
Pre-Chorus
And you got me playin’ Where’s Waldo
Never cared much for playin’ games
Never dressed him up in stripes
But here I am
Checkin’ every page
Oh and
Your presence ain’t felt
Looks like I’m losin’ this game
Chorus
If Hell’s painted in embers and fiery red flames
Then Heaven must be icy cold blue
The way you keep takin’ names
Think I’d rather go out a sinner
From snortin’ too much snow
Than be born a little lamb
And have you put the sickness in my bones
Pre-Chorus
And you got me playin’ Where’s Waldo
Never cared much for playin’ games
Never dressed him up in stripes
But here I am checkin’ every page
Your presence ain’t felt and I’m losin’ this game
Bridge
Oh your son keeps preachin’ you’re made of love and peace
But all I see’s a vengeful king blockin’ the sunlight from me
Seems you fancy yourself a silent knight type
Speakin’ in riddles never sayin’ what’s on your mind
And I keep on playin’ Where’s Waldo
This fella really hates playin’ your games
No he never wore no stripes
But I just keep checkin’ every damn page
Your presence ain’t felt
And I’m losin’ this game
I said
I’m losin’ this game
Outro
Yeah
And I still can’t find God
And I’ve read every fuckin’ page
The Holy Ghost must really like playin’ games
Ones no man was meant to play
Your presence ain’t felt
And I’ve lost all faith
