Bible Belt

I tried so hard

To make you happy

Anything to make you proud

I never met

Your expectations

I fell short, like I let you down

I never felt

Felt accepted

Out of step, I was out of place

I was hurt

I was broken

I was everything that you hate

I was told I would burn in hell

But If I took a sinner's prayer, I could save myself

Born in the buckle of the Bible Belt

I wish I was from somewhere else

I wish I was from somewhere else

I saw it all

From the corner

You were screaming 'bout the end of days

That night I left

You didn't notice

I took my chance and I ran away

I was told I would burn in hell

But if I took a sinner's prayer, I could save myself

Born in the buckle of the Bible Belt

I wish I was from somewhere else

I wish I was from somewhere else

I don't wanna go into the water

I don't wanna go back

I don't wanna go into the water

I don't wanna go back

I don't wanna go

I don't wanna go

I don't wanna go back

Back

I tried so hard

To make you happy

Anything to make you proud

I was told I would burn in hell

But if I took a sinner's prayer, I could save myself

Born in the buckle of the Bible Belt

I wish I was from somewhere else

I was told I would burn in hell

But if I took a sinner's prayer, I could save myself

Born in the buckle of the Bible Belt

I wish I was from somewhere else

I wish I was from somewhere else

I wish I was from somewhere else

I wish I was from somewhere else
