Born Secular
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I was born secular
And inconsolable
I heard that he walked
He walked the earth
God goes
Where he wants
And who knows
Where he is not
Not in me
It's the way
Mothers greet their sons
When it's a moment too late
It's the law of the land
But sometimes the dam just breaks
God works in mysterious ways
And god gives
And then he takes away
From me
From me
