If you are right, must I be wrong?

Is there any middle song?

Why can’t we all just get along?

       Or is there no percentage?

Won’t someone tell me to my face

Why I have to run this race?

I feel somewhat out of place,

      Like I always do.

 

God is with me, or so you say,

But only if I walk your way,

And pray the way you let me pray,

      And where you want me to.

 

And yet you say I live in sin,

In ways that let the devil in,

Losers, it seems, never win,

      I’m trying to move on.

 

I will not tell you what to wear,

who to speak to, to cut your hair,

But I can help you out of there,

            If you want to climb up.
