My Faith Your Power

I live in a dungeon, my mind made for me. I peel like an onion, in layers of "woe is me." 'Cause I'm a freight train, but somethin's in the way. Cold night who needs to see day. Big mouth with nothing to say, hi-yi-ya-o. Prize fighter, never won a prize. A baptizer who isn't baptized. I'm nothing till I wake up, till I realize...
All I need in the darkest hour is my faith, your power. It will make sweet whatever's sour. My faith, your power.
I twist through a tunnel of narrow belief. I drip through a funnel into a tub of grief. 'Cause I'm a first tenor, hasn't got a tune. Latecomer; shows up too soon. Dish o' H‰agen Dazs with no spoon, hi-yi-ya-o. Bat 'n' glove; can't find a ball. Ballerina, walks into a wall. I'm nothin', got nothing, not till I recall...
I can rely on you alone. No one could take your place. I can deny that you're my home, but you're my air, my sky, my time, my space.
'Cause I'm a freight train, but somethin's in the way. Cold night who needs to see day. Big mouth with nothing to say, hi-yi-ya-o. Prize fighter, never won a prize. A baptizer who isn't baptized. I'm nothing till I wake up, till I realize.
