Lyrics

The Kind

[Verse 1]

It's like being in love

You rob your own mind

And defile your bed

You ignore the fate

Of the players who

Both end up dead

[Verse 2]

And you pretend for us

And you pretend for them

This fairy tale will make them jealous of you

[Pre-Chorus]

But it's not the kind

The kind you talked about

And it's just the kind that rips the clothing off your mind

[Chorus 1]

She is feeding you

And you lie with her

And for the first time your right arm becomes useful

As you sin with it

You wanna cut it off

But instead you thank God for all of the wrong you do

[Pre-Chorus]

But it's not the kind

The kind you talked about

And it's just the kind that rips the clothing off your mind

[Chorus 1]

She is feeding you

And you lie with her

And for the first time your right arm becomes useful

As you sin with it

You wanna cut it off

But instead you thank God for all of the wrong you do

(Yeah well then you thought wrong

'Cause you can't serve God and money

You can serve one or the other)

(Bridge)

You cut the cord today

With God’s hand

To hold yours steady

He waits for you to apply the pressure

The warmth of His breath

Wrapped in His words

As He repeats His Truth after Truth after Truth after Truth

[Chorus 2]

And it's just the kind

The kind you talked about

And it's just the kind

That clothes your mind with Christ

He is feeding you

And you know the truth

And I pray this is the last song I will sing to you

[Chorus 2]

And it's just the kind

The kind you talked about

And it's just the kind

That clothes your mind with Christ

He is feeding you

And you know the truth

And I pray this is the last song I will sing to you

I’m sorry Father

I’m sorry sister

I’m sorry brother

I’m sorry Father

I’m sorry Father

I’m sorry sister

I’m sorry brother

I’m sorry everybody
