Marine Street

Tear stains on my t-shirt

I've got a thousand

Things to say

But with your head

On my chest

All I could suggest

Was, "Everything'll

be ok"

Ritter said

"I got a girl in the war"

I'd equate mine

Just the same

My baby's fighting

A battle of her own

I'm just here

To keep the wolves at bay

Babe I don't know

If there's a God

Where the hell is he?

Babe I don't know

It's God Damn hard to believe

When I was young

My daddy told me son

"When there's tension

On the end of a line

Ya gotta give a little bit

And dance with the fish

But you won't catch em

every time"

I'm hardly old

But older than I was

And my daddy

lives across the state

Of all the lessons

I've learned

And respect I've earned

I'm a child again today

Babe I don't know

If there's a God

Where the hell is he?

Babe I don't know

It's God Damn hard to believe

Babe I don't know

If there's a God

Where the hell is he?

Babe I don't know

It's God Damn hard to believe

There ain't no "Cancer for Dummies"

And life ain't a plot from Nancy Drew

There's no right way

To deal with the wrong

To get past

You gotta go right through

To get past

You gotta go right through

To get past
