I have broken many promises
Thrown caution to the wind
Rebelled in my youth
But here you come again
You are the meesage in the bottle
The light that never dims
And though I let you down
You'll always be my frind

I will never forget
I will have no regrets
Don't want to cheat anyone
Don't want to steal from anyone
Don't want to lie
Don't want to quit
Don't want to leave any doubt

Put my faith in fairy tales
Believed what I was told
I've watched the holy eat their own
Suck the meat and lick the bone
There is only one voice, my universal guide
You've alway been beside me
Even when I wanted to die

I will never forget
I will have no regrets
Don't want to cheat anyone
Don't want to steal from anyone
Don't want to lie
Don't want to quit
Don't want to leave any doubt

Don't want to step on anyone
Don't want to hurt anyone
Don't want to curse anyone
Don't want to leave any doubt

Sometimes I itch and squirm
To crawl out of my skin
You put your arm around me
Like the air that I take in
Won't push no needle in my arm
Or bathe in gasoline
Never swear in Jesus' name
Or hide behind the pain

Don't want to cheat anyone
Don't want to steal from anyone
Don't want to step on anyone
Don't want to hurt anyone
Don't wnat to curse anyone
Don't want to leave any doubt
