You're Not My God - Paul Jefferson

"You're Not My God"
Written by Paul Jefferson and Keith Urban

It's just a piece of paper, it says, "In God We Trust"
A little felt good
But a lot was not enough
Everybody loved me when I was on a roll
Yeah I thought I had it all
When I held the gold
But you're not my God
And you're not my friend
You're not the one I will walk with in the end
You're not the truth
You're a temporary shot
You ruin people's lives and you don't give a second thought
You're not my God
Little white lines on a mirror
Cut neatly in a roll
Medicine that lied to me about who’s in control
I thought you were the answer
To all of my despair
You almost had me six feet down
But I'm still breathin' air
You're not my God
And you're not my friend
You're not the one I will walk with in the end
You're not the truth
You're a temporary shot
You ruin people's lives and you don't give a second thought
You're not my God
Around each turn a sweet voice
Promised me escape
But hiding in that pretty face
Was another heartache
Now some call you a weakness
Some call you a sin
Call yourself what you want
I know what you’ve been
But you're not my God
And you're not my friend
You're not the one that I will walk with in the end
You're not the truth
You're a temporary shot
You ruin people's lives and you don't give a second thought
You're not my God
You’re not my God
You’re not my God
