God only knows
God only knows
God only knows

On the surface
Of the one we call belief
Underneath it
Well comes the only thing I've lived without
That's why you must believe me

God only knows why you've been running out
Cause so far the only thing that I've figured out was all of you
Cause God must really hate me
Because I know I don't deserve the things that I've been through
Alone

On the surface we seem plain enough
A little weathered by the work that we do
But underneath it you get tired of running
So you settle in and make sure life gets comfortable enough

God only knows why you've been running out
Cause so far the only thing that I've figuerd out was all of you
Cause God must really hate me
Because I know I don't deserve the things that I've been through

And everything that you are and everything that you were
Is what makes you
And everything that you are and everything that you were
Is what breaks you apart
And everything that you are and everything that you were
Is what makes you
And everything that you are and everything that you were
Is what breaks you apart

Underneath this face I found myself
A little jaded by the things I've seen
But on the surface I get tired of trying
So I settle in and make my life more comfortable for me

And everything that you are and everything that you were
Is what makes you
And everything that you are and everything that you were 
Is what breaks you apart
And everything that you are and everything that you were
Is what makes you
And everything that you are and everything that you were
Is what breaks you apart

God only knows why you've been running out
Cause so far the only thing that I've figured out was all of you
Cause God must really hate me
Because I know I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't
(And everything that you are and everything that you were)
And God only knows
(And everything that you are and everything that you were)
And God only knows
(And everything that you are and everything that you were)
And God only knows
