So tired of playing
The same old worn out games
With a nickle and a song
Lifting my own name
Thinking out loud
That I can save myself
You see if not me
Then I ask who else
I'd be rich if I could
Sell off all this shame
Bottled tight up inside
But can't give any of it away
I keep holding out
One of the proud
Jesus is for losers
That's what I'm all about
He takes me just as I am
Down upon my knees
Jesus is for losers
And yes that would be me
I show up right on time
To my own open grave
Stinking to high heaven
Where sin has me its slave
Find I'm drowning in
My own wishing well
Thought back then that I could swim
These days not so well
Got it all locked up tight
Yet I myself have no key
In which to open up
This hardened heart in me
Randomly beat
Facing defeat
Jesus is for losers
I'm pointing fingers at me
Wondering at how
I became part of the crowd
Jesus is for losers
I'll take all that I'm allowed
Never much
On push and shove
Jesus is for losers
When you've had enough
Just as I am
Least we forget
Jesus is for losers
Are we not all there yet...
