Faith Healer Lyrics

A pill is hard to swallow for a fool
But belief is something solid to hold on to
Bitter taste aside, who is anyone to judge
What helps somebody else surivive

I watched a sparrow sing its song
It saw a scarecrow on my lawn
I begged it not to leave, as it ascended through the trees
I said I know what you mean

So come to me, I will hit you where it hurts
And I am cheap, but that's how it works
Believe in me like an evangelical faith healer
I promise only what I know I can't deliver
Something bigger

I mostly spend my time complaining
I mostly spend my time confused
But all of that aside, I hang on to my pride
And I am not a fool
I will follow the rules
I will swallow the truth
You are hollow and I am bruised

So come to me, I will hit you where it hurts
And I am cheap, but that's how it works
Believe in me like an evangelical faith healer
I promise only what I know I can't deliver
Something bigger

So come to me, I will hit you where it hurts
And I am cheap, but that's how it works
Believe in me like an evangelical faith healer
I promise only what I know I can't deliver
Something bigger
