As far as I can tell
This is all we get
Ain't no heaven and there ain't no hell
As far as I can tell
I know you got plans
For when this one is through
I know what I will do

Soak it up like a sponge

I'm not trying to bite the hand of god
I'm not trying to tell the devil yes
I'm just trying to love everything we've got
I ain't been promised the rest
So I will

Soak it up like a sponge

If you pray hard enough
Maybe you can get on
But if the whole thing's a bluff
And this is where you belong
Then this is where you belong
