[Verse 1]
I woke up late
Put my sweater on
And I walked down to the shop
I stood in line
'Til the line was gone
And my turn to win was lost

[Pre-Chorus 1]
What do you do
When you look to the left and to the right
And find no clue?

[Chorus]
Well I'm sending a letter to God
How will it be when I'm gone?
And what if everyone is wrong?

[Verse 2]
I took you in
Made a bed for you
And in turn you gave me some
Words to go on
Told me I was saved
But you never said what from

[Pre-Chorus 2]
What do you do
When you look to the left and to the right
And find no clues
To the questions you ask yourself at night?
Who will come through?

[Chorus]
You'll be sending a letter to God
How will it be when we're gone?
And what if everyone is wrong?

[Verse 3]
A solid case
For the innocent
Could be made and laid to rest
They say, "it won't do
If you aren't like us
Then you've failed the final test"

[Pre-Chorus 3]
What do you feel
When you look to the east and to the west
If this is real
Does it feel like some never ending test?
A finance deal
If this is my one last chance to invest
I've one request

[Chorus]
I'll be sending a letter to God
To know where will I go when I'm gone?
And what if everyone is wrong?
