My Faith makes me try to get by
Even when I wish I could die
Because I love her

I have Faith that she loves me
It seems I found life's great key
In things she hardly knew were

She hates the things that I do
Even though they taught me too
And that's the reason I am

The things I've done are stupid
But they made me wise
The drugs are seen as an escape
But they're their own disguise
And when the darkness stuck like tape
I survived because of cupid's
Faith and Faith told me to

These feelings were interchangeable
For guy after girl who came
Like some old Faith, legend, or fable
But I write her in with my love
Because she taught me more than the drugs
She taught me to love and care and laugh and swear
She gave me hope and reason,
For the first time from a person
And she gave me
Faith in myself,
Faith in another person,
Faith in a long happy life,
And most of all
I have Faith herself
She's in my arms and on my lips
I love her art, and her hips
I know she filled my broken heart
So yeah I guess you're right
Faith really is the most important part
