Lyrics House of Heroes

House of Heroes

God

Maybe God is a rich man

Who saved up his money and moved out the city

Then settled in the suburbs

And built up his fences to protect his possessions

And nobody sees him

But the church spreads rumors that he's coming back again

But if God is a rich man, why am I so poor?

If I forsake my family

If I forsake my blood

Tell me, what's in it for me?

What's in it for me?

If I forsake my demons

If I forsake my love

Tell me, what's in it for me?

What's in it for me?

Maybe God is a hard man

Who can show you mercy but it won't come free

And he offers protection

If you stay on the take and you take what he needs

And nobody sees him

But they pray wholehearted when they need forgiven

But if God is a hard man, why am I still alive?

If I forsake my family

If I forsake my blood

Tell me, what's in it for me?

What's in it for me?

If I forsake my demons

If I forsake my love

Tell me, what's in it for me?

What's in it for me?
