C Em
I asked our father and he said
C Em
It don't get no easier once you're dead
C Em
This whole universe is just mud and bone
C Em
And you carry what you can alone
[Pre Chorus]
C Em
There's total depravity staring back at me
C Em
There's total depravity standing right in front of me
[Chorus]
C Em
I try to look away and I fail
C Em
I try to look away and I fail
[Verse 2]
C Em
I asked my mother what went wrong
C Em
She said:"It's been bad all along
C Em
And you'd better face the butcher straight
C Em
You don't want to end up on his plate, son
[Chorus]
C Em
I try to look away and I fail
C Em
I try to look away and I fail
C
There's total depravity
Em
I try to look away and I fail
C Em
There's total depravity standing right in front of me
